Special Notes

This rose tteokbokki combines the spicy flavor of traditional tteokbokki with creamy elements. The gochujang provides heat while the heavy cream adds richness. The key is to cook the rice cakes until they're tender but not mushy. This dish is perfect for those who enjoy Korean street food. The mozzarella cheese adds a Western twist to the traditional recipe. For extra heat, you can add more gochujang or red pepper flakes.
