So Tteok So Tteok directly translates to “Rice Cake, Sausage, Rice Cake, Sausage”, which is the literal composition of this dish! If you’re a fan of tteokbokki, you’d LOVE this! Instead of sautéing the rice cakes (tteok) like you’d do in tteokbokki, we’re frying them up on a hot pan to get a nice crispy exterior. Slather it with the sauce and enjoy!

Instructions

1
Ensure you have a pan large enough to fit the skewers; otherwise, trim the skewers as needed. If desired, trim the rice cakes to match the length of the hot dogs; this is purely for aesthetics.
2
Thread the rice cakes and sausages in an alternating pattern onto the skewers. (Tip: if the rice cakes are too dense, boil for 3 minutes to soften.)
3
Make the sauce: Combine the gochujang, soy sauce, sugar, sesame oil, hot water, and ramen seasoning in a bowl. Mix well, then set aside.
4
Heat the oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Place the skewers in the pan and fry until crispy on both sides, 2–3 minutes per side.
5
Once the skewers are done frying, brush with the sauce on both sides and let caramelize a bit, then remove from the pan.
6
Garnish with sesame seeds and green onion.

Enjoy!
