Today I want to show you an easy, super delicious, spicy korean recipe. If you don’t know this by now, I love korean food. As a huge fan of korean food I love experimenting with food and finding plant-based alternatives is the best way to do that! Sometimes weird things happen and they turn out to be super good, like this vegan spicy tteok.
As it is saturday, the recipe post comes with a video recipe that you can check out right here :
Ingredients
To make this stir fry, you will need:
- The essentials : Rice cakes or tteok (I used frozen) and gochujang.
- The veggies: Whatever you have in the fridge will work well, I used some mushrooms, soy bean sprouts, spinach, garlic, zucchini and yellow pepper.
- Some tofu
- Sesame oil & soy sauce
- Some veggie broth
How to make this vegan spicy tteok?
Marinate the tofu with the gochujang, a bit of soy sauce & sesame oil and leave on the side for at least 30 minutes. While the tofu marinates, we are also going to soak the tteok with water.
Then, we will cut the veggies: zucchini in sticks, mushrooms in slices and yellow bell pepper in cubes. We are going to start cooking it: zucchini, garlic, bell pepper, mushrooms, soy bean sprouts. Each veggie leaving it around 1 minutes cooking on its own.
Add the tofu & all the sauce. Don’t hesitate adding a bit more veggie broth if it’s too thick. Cook for 5 minutes then add the tteok. We are going to cook it all together for 10 minutes and then we will add the spinach. Simmer for 5 minutes and voilà, it’s all ready !
