Siru-tteok () is a type of Korean rice cake (tteok) traditionally made by steaming rice or glutinous rice flour in a siru ().

The popularity of siru-tteok grew as the usage of siru spread across the Korean peninsula. As it is not an everyday utensil but rather used for preparing sacrificial dishes during rituals, siru-tteok is not a casual dish made to enjoy.
