How to make Rosé Tteokbokki

Tips from the cook

  • Prep everything first: the cooking is quick.
  • For less heat, use less gochujang and gochugaru. For a creamier sauce, use heavy cream; one garlic clove adds flavour.
  • Be patient: the sauce takes 5–10 minutes to thicken. Too thick? Add milk or water.
  • Melt mozzarella on top, add soft-boiled eggs, or add carrot, cabbage or potato.
