Gungjung Tteokbokki
Have you ever tried the soy sauce based, savoury version of Tteokbokki? Unlike the typical gochujang based Teokbokki, Gungjung Tteokbokki, which translates to Royal Court Tteobokki (stir fried rice cake) features beef and lots of veggies along with rice cakes rather than just rice and fish cakes with some cabbage. Since meat was not an accessible food ingredient back in the days, this version could only be enjoyed by the royals or upper class at the time hence the name. The dish would remind you of Bulgogi flavours with added crunch and flavours of veggies and chewy rice cakes in slightly sweet and savoury sauce. As it is not spicy, it can be easily enjoyed by children and those with lower spice tolerance as well.
