Gen Korean Bbq Spicy Rice Cake Food

This dish is one of the most popular snacks among Korean teens, especially girls. It is hot!!! Might be too spicy for those who are not familiar with Korean food, but it's really good. (You can make a milder version by cutting back on the red pepper paste and red pepper powder.) Once you taste it, you will always go back! Sometimes I use thin rice cakes, they cook faster and also absorb flavor faster. I got this recipe from the Korean Kitchen web site. Our Korean homestay student says this is as good as her mother's.

It is made with rice cakes (garaetteok, cylinder-shaped rice cake), fish cakes, boiled egg, and seasoned with chile paste. The rice cakes are chewy and tender. It looks super spicy and, originally, it is! But you can control the amount of chile paste. You might be able to find it easily at food vendors on the street of Korea. There are always delicious dukbokki boiling and ready to go. Garnish with sesame seeds if you like.

This popular street-food dish, called tteokbokki, is a garlicky, richly spiced dish of rice cakes bathed in red chile paste. Tteokbokki (pronounced duck-bo-key) got its own festival, spinning off from the larger annual Seoul festival of rice cakes, or tteok.

This is a very hot and spicy snack eaten all over Korea in homes and at food stands in the street. It consists of a lovely red sauce and chewy rice cakes which look like very thick, short noodles. If you're a spice lover and want to try a new texture, I would highly recommend this ddokboki, which we made with the kids at my school. It is always done to taste: some sweet, some hot, some with heavy garlic. You can imagine the variety we got with so many kids cooking it. Either way it is a definite Korean comfort food that you can experience with a quick trip to your Asian grocery store.
