  • 4 tbsp gochujang (Korean chili paste)
  • 2 tbsp gochugaru (Korean chili powder)
  • 1 tbsp minced garlic
  • 0.5 tsp black pepper

Sauces & Seasonings

Instructions

  1. 1

    If the Korean rice cakes are hard, soak them in warm water for 10 minutes, then drain. In a bowl, combine gochujang, gochugaru, soy sauce, sugar, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper to make the sauce.

  2. 2

    In a large pan or pot, pour anchovy broth and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Add the prepared sauce mixture to the broth and stir until well combined.

  3. 3

    Add the drained Korean rice cakes, sliced Korean fish cakes, sliced onion, and chopped green cabbage to the simmering sauce. Stir gently to coat everything.

  4. 4

    Let the mixture simmer for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the rice cakes are tender and chewy, and the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency.

  5. 5

    Stir in the chopped spring onions. Serve hot, optionally garnished with sesame seeds or a boiled egg.
