How to make Colm O'Gorman's street food favourite, Spicy Korean Fried Rice Cakes

Once you try this recipe, I promise you, you will want to make it again and again

Bokki means stir-fried in Korean, so Tteokbokki translates as stir-fried rice cakes.

I fell in love with Korean food during the pandemic. The lockdown meant that we could not travel overseas, or even go out to find new restaurants and cuisines here at home. So I found myself ‘travelling’ in my kitchen, trying new cuisines and recipes from all over the world.

Korean Fried Chicken became a firm family favourite here in our home, as did Buldak, Korean Fire Chicken with Cheese, and both recipes have previously featured in this column. This week I have a new Korean recipe for you to try, a street food favourite called Tteokbokki.
