Sweet Honey Tteokbokki
Sweet Honey Tteokbokki that Kids and Adults Will Love
I’ve made a simple and delicious snack that’s perfect for any time! This tteokbokki is coated in a sweet, sticky honey glaze, making it a delightful treat for the whole family.
Main Ingredients- Rice cakes (tteok) – about 200g (adjust quantity to your preference)
- Honey – 2 Tbsp
- Vegetable oil – 2 Tbsp
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, gather all the ingredients for your Sweet Honey Tteokbokki. You can rinse the rice cakes under water and drain them, or use them directly. Prepare your almonds or peanuts for that extra nutty flavor, according to your preference.
Step 2
Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the rice cakes and stir them with a spatula to prevent sticking. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the rice cakes become slightly translucent and lightly golden brown on the outside. This step helps achieve a wonderfully chewy texture.
Step 3
Once the rice cakes are cooked, reduce the heat to low. Drizzle in the 2 tablespoons of honey and gently toss the rice cakes to coat them evenly. The goal is to create a thin, glistening layer of honey that provides a subtle sweetness. Be careful not to overcook at this stage, as it can make the rice cakes tough. Stir for about a minute until the honey just coats the tteok.
Step 4
Finally, add your prepared almonds or peanuts to the pan and mix them with the honey-coated rice cakes. The crunchy nuts paired with the sweet tteokbokki create a delightful contrast in textures and flavors. You can also sprinkle some sesame seeds on top for an extra touch. Serve immediately while warm to enjoy the chewy and sweet goodness of this delightful snack!
