Cuisine: Korean
Serves: 2 servings
Ingredients
- 2 packs of instant ramen
- 1 cup tteokbokki rice cakes
- 1/2 cup fish cakes
- 2 tablespoons gochujang (Korean chili paste)
- 1 tablespoon gochugaru (Korean chili flakes)
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 2 cups water
- 1 green onion, chopped
- Sesame seeds for garnish
Instructions
- Prepare all ingredients by measuring them out precisely and having them ready near your cooking station.
- In a medium-sized pot, combine water, gochujang, gochugaru, soy sauce, and sugar. Whisk these ingredients together until the sauce is smooth and well-integrated.
- Add tteokbokki rice cakes and fish cakes to the sauce, letting them simmer for 3-4 minutes to absorb the flavors and become tender.
- Break the instant ramen noodles into the pot, ensuring they are fully submerged in the spicy sauce. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until noodles are perfectly al dente.
- Stir the mixture occasionally to prevent noodles from sticking and to ensure even cooking and sauce distribution.
- Once noodles and rice cakes are cooked, remove from heat and transfer to serving bowls.
- Garnish with freshly chopped green onions and a sprinkle of sesame seeds for added texture and visual appeal.
- Serve immediately while hot, enjoying the perfect balance of sweet, spicy, and savory flavors.
Tips
- Choose quality gochujang and gochugaru for authentic Korean flavor—the better the paste and chili flakes, the more delicious your Rabboki will be.
- Don't overcook the noodles and rice cakes; aim for that perfect al dente texture that provides a satisfying chew.
- Adjust the spice level by increasing or decreasing the amount of gochujang and gochugaru to suit your personal heat tolerance.
- For extra richness, consider adding a soft-boiled egg or a slice of cheese on top for a creamy contrast to the spicy sauce.
- Prepare all ingredients beforehand to ensure smooth, stress-free cooking and the best possible flavor integration.
