Eric Nam, the popular singer-songwriter, host, and YouTube creator, is finally back with a new recipe for his cooking corner NAM NOMS!
A year after his first NAM NOMS video, Eric is back to teach people how to make one of the most famous (and most delicious) Korean snack foods: tteok-bokki (known as 떡볶이 in the Korean language and also stylized as tteokbokki in English).
Tteokbokki means stir-fried rice cake and has become famous as a Korean street food. The most common kind of tteokbokki is made up of chewy rice cakes and a fiery gochujang sauce that has a hint of sweetness as well. Most recipes for gochujang-based tteokbokki include ingredients such as fish cakes, boiled eggs, and scallions. However, there are also a variety of recipes, as well as different types of tteokbokki dishes which include a multitude of sauces and ingredients. These range from cream sauce, soy sauce, jajjang sauce and more to seafood or galbi tteokbokki.
