Tteokbokki Skewers (rice cakes)

Vegan & Gluten-free

If you never heard about rice cakes or Tteokbokki, you definitely need to read this article and try this kind of recipe.

Tteokbokki is a korean meal made out of rice cakes and gochujang (spicy chilly sauce). The rice cakes that we are talking about are in general made out of sushi rice, corn starch, and salt. It is really a super tasty recipe and we loved it the first time we tried it in restaurants.

So we wanted to create our version of those rice cakes, made out of rice paper, and a gluten-free version of the gochujang sauce. That is how we ended doing our delicious Tteokbokki skewers, filled with vegan cheese.

In terms of ingredients, you will need rice paper, vegan cheese, water, skewer sticks, gochujang, gochugaru flakes, mirin (flavored sweet vinegar), oyster sauce, agave syrup and water.

They can actually be enjoyed in a sauce but we decided to present it on skewers. That could for example be the perfect finger food for your guests !
