Essential Ingredients
- 1 Ramyeon noodle block
- 0.5 packet Ramyeon soup powder (approx. 25g)
- 1 Tbsp Gochujang (Korean chili paste, 15ml)
- 2 tsp Sugar (10g)
- 300ml Water (1.5 cups)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Prepare all your vegetables and fish cake by slicing them into uniform lengths suitable for stir-frying. Julienne the fish cake, cabbage, and carrot into bite-sized strips. Thinly slice the green onion diagonally. This consistent slicing ensures even cooking and enhances the overall texture of the dish.
Step 2
Pour 300ml of water into a pot. Add all the seasoning ingredients that will create the delicious Rabokki sauce: 0.5 packet of ramyeon soup powder, 1 tablespoon of gochujang, and 2 teaspoons of sugar. Stir well to dissolve any clumps, then bring to a simmer over medium heat. It’s crucial to mix the seasonings thoroughly before boiling to prevent lumps.
Step 3
Once the sauce is bubbling, add the ramyeon noodle block, julienned fish cake, cabbage, and carrot. Cook for 2 minutes, allowing the noodles to soak up the flavorful sauce. Gently stir occasionally to prevent the noodles from sticking. Be mindful of the cooking time to avoid overcooking the noodles, which can make them mushy.
Step 4
Finally, add the diagonally sliced green onion and cook for approximately 1 more minute. The subtle sweetness and aroma of the green onion will significantly elevate the flavor profile of your Rabokki. Cook just until the green onions are slightly softened.
Step 5
Transfer the finished Rabokki to a serving bowl. Sprinkle a pinch of sesame seeds on top for a nutty finish. Your delicious, spicy, and sweet Rabokki is now ready to be enjoyed! It’s best served hot for the most delightful taste experience.
