Ingredients- 350g Tteokguk Tteok (tteok for soup, soft kind)
- 1/2 medium onion (finely chopped)
- 1/2 red bell pepper (finely diced)
- 1 can spam or your favorite ham (finely diced)
- 1 cup tomato sauce (approx. 200ml)
- 150g mozzarella cheese (adjust to your liking)
- A pinch of chopped parsley (for garnish)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Let’s start building the foundation for your delicious Tteok Pizza! Lightly grease a pan with oil and sauté the diced ham, onion, and red bell pepper over medium-low heat until the onions turn translucent. This step helps to bring out the natural sweetness of the vegetables, enhancing the sauce’s flavor.
Step 2
Once the onions begin to turn tender and translucent, add 1 cup (approx. 200ml) of your store-bought tomato sauce. Stir and cook for another 1-2 minutes until the sauce is well combined with the vegetables. This creates a flavorful pizza sauce base. Feel free to add a pinch of salt and pepper to taste if desired.
Step 3
Now it’s time to feature the star ingredient: the tteok! Lightly grease a frying pan and arrange the 350g of tteokguk tteok in a single layer, making sure they don’t overlap. Cook over medium-low heat until the tteok is lightly golden brown. This will give it a slightly crispy exterior and a wonderfully chewy interior. While the tteok is cooking, spread the freshly sautéed pizza sauce evenly over the tteok. Next, generously sprinkle 150g of mozzarella cheese over the sauce. Reduce the heat to low, cover the pan, and let it cook until the cheese is completely melted and gooey. That stretchy cheese pull is the sign of success!
Step 4
Voila! Your amazing Tteok Pizza is ready. For a final touch, sprinkle a pinch of fresh chopped parsley over the finished pizza. This adds a lovely visual appeal and a fresh aroma. Serve immediately while warm and enjoy every bite!
