Ingredients
Main Ingredients (8 rolls of each type)
- 4 sheets Nori (dried seaweed)
- 500g warm cooked rice
- 1/2 carrot
- 10cm pickled radish (danmuji)
- 1/2 cucumber
- Aonori (dried green seaweed) to taste
Seasonings
- [A] Soy Sauce 1 tsp
- [A] Rice Vinegar 1/2 tsp
- [A] Sesame Oil 1/2 tsp
- Sesame Oil (for cooking) to taste
- Salt to taste
- White sesame seeds to taste
- [B] Soy Sauce (for dipping) to taste
- [B] Mustard Paste to taste
Steps
- Thinly slice 1/2 carrot diagonally, then julienne.
- Cut 1/2 cucumber into batons.
- Cut 10cm pickled radish into batons.
- In a bowl, combine 500g warm cooked rice with sesame oil to taste, salt to taste, and white sesame seeds to taste. Mix well.
- In a separate bowl, place the cut cucumber and add 1 tsp soy sauce, 1/2 tsp rice vinegar, and 1/2 tsp sesame oil. Mix well. (Secret Tip: This seasoning blend complements the mini kimbap perfectly.)
- Heat sesame oil to taste in a frying pan. Add the julienned carrot and stir-fry until tender and sweet. (Secret Tip: The more you stir-fry carrots, the sweeter they become. Cook until soft and the sweetness develops.)
- Lightly season the stir-fried carrots with salt to taste.
- Reheat sesame oil to taste in the frying pan. Briefly stir-fry the baton-cut pickled radish. (Secret Tip: Stir-fry while coating with sesame oil until glossy.)
- Cut 4 sheets of nori into quarters.
- Spread a thin layer of the seasoned rice onto one quarter sheet of nori. (Secret Tip: Leave a small margin at the edge of the nori to prevent the rice from spilling out when rolling.)
- For the pickled radish and carrot combination, place the pickled radish as a core on the rice, top with the carrot, and roll tightly. (Secret Tip: A slight overhang looks cute. Roll firmly without a bamboo mat.)
- For the green perilla leaf and cucumber combination, place the green perilla leaf (as many as you like) on the rice and fold it in half.
- Place the cucumber as a core on top of the folded perilla leaf and roll tightly, enclosing the cucumber. (Secret Tip: A slight overhang looks visually appealing. Roll firmly.)
- Brush the surface of the rolled mini kimbap with sesame oil to taste using the back of a spoon for a glossy finish.
- Arrange the mini kimbap in a barrel shape for serving.
- Optionally, serve with a dipping sauce made by mixing mustard paste to taste and soy sauce to taste.
