Dduk Bok-kee is a sort of spicy rice dumpling dish. (think japanese mochi covered in hot sauce, only 1000 times better) Its one of my most favorite foods in existence. (and I LOVE to eat)
dduk (you can find it at asian markets or make the rice cakes yourself out of rice flour)
2 Tbsp soysauce
2 Tbsp sugar
2Tbsp sesame oil
1 minced garlic clove
1 Tbsp rice wine (Sake- and make sure its not bad Sake - yes there IS good sake in the world)
Black pepper
1/2 lb lean beef
Chopped vegetables (any kinds will work, I like onions, carrots, water chestnuts and green beans)

2 Tbsp Oil
- In a bowl combine 1 Tbsp soy sauce, 1 Tbsp sugar, 1 Tbsp sesame oil and 1 Tbsp sake, a dash of black pepper and a minced galic clove.
- Marinate the sliced beef in the sauce overnight
- Cook the dduk in a pot of boiling water for 5-10 minutes until they are soft. Then turn off the heat and leave them.
- In another bowl you will make the sauce: 1 Tbsp soysauce, 1 Tbsp sesame oil, 1 Tbsp sugar, 4 Tbsp Korean red pepper paste, and some black pepper.
- Heat 2 Tbsp of oil in a frying pan and cook the marinated meat.
- Add the chopped vegetables to the skillet with the beef.
- Saute the beef and vegetables until they are mostly done and then drain the dduk and add it to the pan.
- Add the spicy sauce you made to the pan as well.
- Finishing cooking the meat, dduk and vegetables.
- Put the Dduk Bok-kee onto a plate, sprinkle with some sesame seeds, get a big glass of water, and eat!
