Let me show you how to elevate your store-bought soup tteokbokki to the next level! This recipe adds simple ingredients to make a popular Korean snack even more satisfying and flavorful.
Ingredients- Store-bought soup tteokbokki for 2 servings
- Water 300ml (about 1.5 cups)
- Fish cakes 1 handful (about 50g)
- Enoki mushrooms 100g (1 pack)
- Green onion 1 handful (about 20g)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare one pack of store-bought soup tteokbokki for 2 servings. (This recipe uses Ottogi brand as a reference.)
Step 2
Cut the square fish cakes into bite-sized pieces, about 3×3 cm. This will add a pleasant chewiness to your tteokbokki.
Step 3
Prepare 300g of rice cakes for the soup tteokbokki. If the rice cakes are stuck together, rinse them gently under running water to separate them, then drain well.
Step 4
Pour 300ml of cold water into a pot with some depth. (This is approximately 1.5 standard Korean paper cups.)
Step 5
Turn the stove to medium heat. Add the rice cakes, the store-bought tteokbokki sauce packet, and the prepared green onions to the pot with the water. Stir gently to help the sauce distribute evenly.
Step 6
Now, add the cut fish cakes to the pot. Let it simmer for 4 minutes, allowing the fish cakes to absorb the flavorful broth. It’s best to maintain medium heat to prevent the broth from reducing too quickly.
Step 7
Trim the root ends off the enoki mushrooms, separate them into strands, and add them to the pot. The chewy yet tender texture of enoki mushrooms complements tteokbokki wonderfully.
Step 8
Finally, generously add the thinly sliced green onions. The fresh aroma of the green onions will further enhance the overall flavor of the tteokbokki. Simmer for an additional 2 minutes after adding the green onions, and your delicious soup tteokbokki is complete!
Step 9
Enjoy your hearty soup tteokbokki with its chewy rice cakes, tender fish cakes, and aromatic enoki mushrooms and green onions! It makes for a satisfying meal or snack. You can even mix the leftover sauce with rice for an extra delicious treat!
