Main Ingredients- Tteokguk tteok (rice cake soup slices) – 2 measuring cups
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare 2 measuring cups of tteokguk tteok. If your tteokguk tteok is frozen solid, it’s best to let it thaw at room temperature for a bit before you start. Rinse the tteokguk tteok under running water, then soak them in lukewarm water for about 10 to 15 minutes until they become soft and pliable. Be careful not to soak them for too long, as they might become mushy. They should be soft enough to be slightly pressed with your finger.
Step 2
Drain the soaked tteokguk tteok thoroughly in a colander. Leaving excess water on the rice cakes can make them soggy or burn easily when cooking. Pat them dry with paper towels or a clean kitchen cloth to remove as much moisture as possible. This step is crucial for achieving a perfectly crispy tteokppang.
Step 3
Preheat your air fryer. Arrange the prepared tteokguk tteok in a single layer in the air fryer basket, ensuring they don’t overlap. Air fry at 180°C (356°F) for about 11 to 12 minutes, or until they turn a beautiful golden brown. For even cooking, you can open the air fryer halfway through and give the rice cakes a gentle toss. They are ready when they are golden and make a satisfying crispy sound!
