Tteokbokki, also known as Ddeokbokki, or also Nyebokki, is a popular Korean snack food which is commonly purchased from street vendors or Pojangmacha. Originally it was called tteok jjim (떡찜), and was a braised dish of sliced rice cake, meat, eggs, and seasoning. Tteok jjim an early variant of modern tteokbokki, was once a part of Korean royal court cuisine. This type of tteokbokki was made by boiling tteok, meat, vegetables, eggs, and seasonings in water, and then serving it topped with ginkgo nuts and walnuts. In its original form, tteokbokki, which was then known as gungjung tteokbokki, was a dish served in the royal court and regarded as a representative example of haute cuisine. The original tteokbokki was a stir-fried dish consisting of garaetteok (가래떡, cylinder-shaped tteok) combined with a variety of ingredients, such as beef, mung bean sprouts, green onions, shiitake mushrooms, carrots, and onions, and seasoned with soy sauce.
I know this food from Korean drama, they eat some kind of street vendor snack along the road side, seams I have a big curiosity want to try this kind of food. And what a coincidence, Mia's husband, Jaya, live in Korea for study –so I’m really beg her to ask her hubby to bring me some cake rice and gochujang for me--. And after a long ride of waiting, here is the Teokbokki, just take a look…
@LOTTE MART, this is where i saw where it sell, 66.000 IDR/pack, so way expensive.
..
This is the rice cake and gochujang (red bean paste)
And This is the result, just cook the rice cake with the bean paste, that so simple.
Actually the taste doesnt fit with Indonesian tongue, so I add tomato sauce, little bit sugar and chili sauce, and the result not so bad either, just like eat cilok with sauce...
