Instructions

First, let the rice cakes (tteok) soak in a bowl filled with hot water until they are detangled. Then drain and set aside. This step is not necessary if you use fresh tteok.

Next, preheat a pan over medium heat and cook the bacon until there is some bacon grease in the pan. Then add the sausages and pan-fry until they are lightly browned.

If you want to make the sauce even creamier use heavy cream. And if you want to add more flavor use one garlic clove.
