Korean Royal court stir fried rice cakesGungjung-tteokbokki 궁중떡볶이

Step 1

1 garlic clove, minced½ teaspoon soy sauce½ teaspoon honey (or sugar)¼ teaspoon of ground black pepper½ teaspoon toasted sesame oil

Step 2

Cut the beef brisket into matchsticks. Mix the marinade ingredients together and add the beef. Keep in the fridge.Separate the egg yolks from the whites. Beat the yolks and add a pinch of salt.If you buy frozen rice cakes, thaw them out. And if your rice cakes are really big and thick, you should soak them in water for 5 minutes so they will soften up during cooking. The rice cakes I used in this video were small enough that they didn’t need to be soaked.Slice the vegetables and mushrooms, as described above.

Step 3

Add a few drops of cooking oil to a heated non-stick pan. Wipe off any extra hot oil with a paper towel.Turn the heat down very low. Pour the egg yolks into the pan and tilt it in different ways so the yolks spread thinly and form a sheet at the bottom.Turn off the heat and let the thin egg sheet finish cooking on the residual heat of the pan. When it’s 70% cooked flip it over and let it cook on the other side.Slice the yolk sheet into strips and set it aside.

Step 4

Heat up a skillet and add 2 teaspoons of cooking oil, 1 clove of minced garlic, and the marinated beef. Stir for a few minutes until the beef is half cooked.Add all the sliced vegetables and mushrooms. Stir for 1 minute.Add the rice cakes, ½ cup water, 4 teaspoons of soy sauce, 1 Tablespoon of rice syrup (or honey or sugar), and ½ teaspoon of ground black pepper. Keep stirring for 2 to 3 minutes until everything is juicy and shiny and the rice cake softens.Add 1 teaspoon of toasted sesame oil before removing from the heat. Transfer to a plate and garnish with sesame seeds, the yellow egg yolk strips (gyerannoreunjajidan), and chopped pine nuts if you have them.Serve hot.
