Ddukbokki (Korean spicy rice cake) recipe

When you go to the Korean markets they will have packages of rice cakes either in the freezer section or refrigerated section. 


You will need...

• 1 package of rice cakes (log style or oval style) either is fine really
• 1 tbsp of red pepper paste (buy it in the tubs, it's cheaper than the squeezable bottles)
• brown sugar I use about 3/4 cup but you can put in up to 1 1/2 cup, just depends on how much spice/sweet contrast you want
• 1 cup of water

In a skillet or a wok bring the water to where its just about to boil then stir in the red pepper paste. 
Add the brown sugar and mix it in till it dissolves. Turn down the heat to medium.
Finally add in the rice cakes and turn down the heat to a simmer. Stir every so often. After about 10 minutes, Voila!
