Traditional korean rice pasta

Pasta and macaroni Italian cuisine

teokbokki (Stir-Fried Rice Pasta) is one of the most prominent street food/snack in Korea. Nowadays, the most common recipe enjoyed by Koreans is made with red pepper paste (Gochujang). As the street food culture weakens stall owners are making the move to commercial buildings. The incessant popularity of tteokbokki also diversified from extremely spicy sauce to soft Italian cream sauce. <br /> <br />However, the traditional tteokbokki that our family enjoys is much different. Back in Joseon Dyansty, the rice offered to the king was presented in the form of plain rice cake. It was said the palace chefs developed Gungjung Tteobokki with the rice cakes to serve the king. Made with soy sauce base, healthy vegetables, and highest quality beef, this dish is a more nutritious and savory dish than the modern variation. Below is the recipe passed on by our grandmother.
