Ingredients

• Sweet rice flour (glutinous rice flour) - 200 grams
• Water - 150 ml
• Sugar - 50 grams
• Salt - 1/4 teaspoon
• Vegetable oil - 1 tablespoon
• Carrot (finely chopped) - 30 grams
• Green onion (finely chopped) - 15 grams
• Egg - 1 large
• Sesame seeds - 1 tablespoon

Steps

1. In a mixing bowl, combine sweet rice flour, sugar, and salt. Gradually add water while stirring to create a smooth batter.
2. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add vegetable oil. Sauté the chopped carrot and green onion for about 3-4 minutes until softened.
3. Push the sautéed vegetables to one side of the skillet. Crack the egg into the skillet and scramble it until fully cooked, then mix it with the vegetables.
4. Pour the rice flour batter into the skillet over the vegetables and egg. Cook for about 10-15 minutes, gently stirring occasionally, until the mixture is thick and sticky.
5. Once the mixture has thickened, transfer it to a greased dish or mold, spreading it evenly. Allow it to cool for 10 minutes.
6. After cooling, slice the mixture into squares or rectangles. Heat a little oil in the skillet again and fry the tteok on each side for about 2-3 minutes until golden brown.
7. Sprinkle sesame seeds on top and serve warm or at room temperature.
