Curry Meets K-Cuisine: Sukhi’s Butter Chicken Tteokbokki

Today, we’re globe-trotting. 

Introducing Butter Chicken Tteokbokki, a fusion dish that combines Indian Butter Chicken with Korean tteok-bokki rice cakes. 

This dish marries creamy, tomato-based curry with the distinctively chewy texture of tteok-bokki, a staple in Korean street food. When the butter chicken meets pillowy rice cakes, it creates a gooey mix of textures and flavors.  

What is Tteokbokki? 

Tteokbokki, a beloved Korean dish, is all about the rice cakes – tteok. These cylindrical, chewy delights are made from steamed rice flour dough and are a cornerstone in Korean cuisine. 

Traditionally served in a spicy, sweet sauce, tteokbokki is famed for its unique texture that’s both chewy and soft—meaning it’s a satisfying bite. It’s a versatile ingredient that absorbs flavors beautifully, making it the perfect pair for the rich, spicy, and creamy sauce of our Butter Chicken.
