Gimbap: Korean Nori Seaweed Rolls
- 2 rice bowls full Plain-cooked rice
- 2 sheets Toasted nori seaweed
- 1 dash Sesame oil
- 1 dash Salt
- 100 grams Ground pork
- 2 tbsp Yakiniku (Japanese BBQ) sauce
- 1 Egg
- 1 dash Salt
- 2 Shiitake mushrooms
- 1 dash Soy sauce
- 4 slice Kamaboko (or imitation crab stick)
- 2 bunches Mizuna greens
- 1 Toasted white sesame seeds
- Cook the ground pork in the yakiniku sauce.
- Add salt to the egg, Heat some oil in a frying pan and make scrambled eggs.
- Blanch the mizuna greens in boiling salted water.
- Slice the shiitake mushrooms, put into a bowl with a little soy sauce, cover with plastic wrap and microwave for 15 seconds.
- Leave as-is to cool.
- Place a sheet of nori seawed on a sushi mat with the non-shiny (rough) side up.
- Drizzle on some sesame oil and spread it all around using a piece of paper towel.
- Sprinkle with salt.
- Spread about 1 bowlful of rice over the nori, and sprinkle on some white sesame seeds.
- Add the prepared fillings from Step 2.
- Leave a gap in the front and back to make it easier to roll up the roll.
- Pick up the front end of the sushi mat and push it over the filling towards the center in one motion and press.
- Then keep on rolling without hesitation.
- The roll looks like this.
- Some of the filling may be sticking out from the sides, so just push them back in gently and tidy up the roll.
- If you cut the roll with the seam side down, the slices will be nicer looking.
- Wipe the knife each time you make a cut with a moistened kitchen towel - this way the slices are less likely to fall apart.
- Cut to whatever thickness you like and enjoy.
