Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, let’s prepare all the ingredients for today’s dish. For the main ingredients, you’ll need 3 rectangular fish cakes, 1 stick of garaetteok (Korean rice cake, approximately 10cm long), and a 10cm piece of green onion for garnish. For the sauce, gather 0.5 Tbsp sugar, 0.5 Tbsp gochugaru (Korean chili flakes), 1 Tbsp soy sauce, 0.5 Tbsp minced garlic, 1.5 Tbsp gochujang (Korean chili paste), and a pinch of black pepper.
Step 2
Fold the rectangular fish cakes into bite-sized pieces and thread them onto skewers in a zigzag pattern. Arranging them appealingly will make the skewers look even more appetizing.
Step 3
Cut the garaetteok into approximately 10cm lengths and thread them onto the skewers along with the fish cakes. If your rice cakes are hard, briefly blanch them in boiling water to soften them. This will make them easier to skewer and much more pleasant to eat.
Step 4
Now, let’s make that delicious sauce! In a bowl, combine 0.5 Tbsp sugar, 0.5 Tbsp gochugaru, 1 Tbsp soy sauce, 0.5 Tbsp minced garlic, 1.5 Tbsp gochujang, and a pinch of black pepper. Mix everything together well to create your flavorful sauce – it’s the perfect balance of spicy, sweet, and savory!
Step 5
Take a medium-sized pan and add 1 cup of water. Pour the prepared spicy-sweet sauce into the pan and stir it thoroughly to dissolve any clumps, ensuring a smooth consistency.
Step 6
Once the sauce is smooth, add the skewered fish cakes and rice cakes to the pan. Let them simmer over medium-low heat for about 10 minutes. While cooking, occasionally turn the skewers and spoon the sauce over them to ensure even coating and maximum flavor infusion.
Step 7
Voila! Your delicious red fish cake and rice cake skewers are ready. Arrange them attractively on a plate and garnish with finely chopped green onions for a beautiful presentation. Feeling stressed today? Treat yourself to these delightful skewers to lift your spirits!
