Tteokbokki Recipe with Chili Oil (Gireum Tteokbokki)
A simple Tteokbokki recipe that is made with Spicy Chili Oil instead of gochujang. In Korean, it's called Gireum Tteokbokki. And this is a dish that I have only discovered just very recently while visiting Tongin market in Seoul. Read more about that visit here. Gireum or Kireum Tteokbokki (기름 떡뽁이) means "oil rice cakes"...hmm.. it doesn't sound very appetizing I know but believe me, it is absolutely addicting. This Tteokbokki recipe IS SPICY though, I mean not crazy spicy but definitely spicy enough to give you the happy burning sensation around your lips. :)
Talking about getting addicted to spicy tteokbokki... that reminds me of my Ewha high schools days in the early 80's...
