- 15 heets seaweed (gim/laver) 5 of the sheets cut in half = 10 small/half sheets + 10 regular sized sheets
Filling:
- 1 pkg pickled daikon radish (danmuji)
- 1 pkg burdock root
- 1 cucumber julienned
- 4-5 carrots julienned
- 40 perilla leaves (sesame leaves)
- 1 lb spicy pork bulgogi cooked

Instructions
Prepare the rice:
- Add washed rice to rice cooker.
- Cover with enough water.
- Cook the rice accordingly.
- Once rice is cooked and still warm, drizzle in sesame oil, salt and black pepper.
- Fluff the rice and divide into 10 equal portions. Set aside.
Prepare the egg:
- Beat eggs, sugar and water together in a bowl.
- Pour into a small baking pan lined with parchment paper.
- Bake at 350°F/177°C for 15-17 minutes, until set.
- Remove from oven and let cool.
- Cut egg into long strips. Set aside.
Assemble:
- Place gimbap/sushi rolling mat on a work surface.
- Add 1 full sized sheet of seaweed, shiny side down on the mat.
- Thinly spread 1 portion of cooked rice over the surface of the seaweed, leaving about a 1" border on the top edge.
- Place a half sheet of seaweed over the rice, offset by 1" from the bottom of the rice.
- Add perilla leaves, and in fillings: 1 radish, 2 burdock, 1 strip of egg, carrot, cucumber, and spicy pork.
- Do not overfill.
- Firmly wrap and roll the seaweed. When wrapping, ensure the rice on the bottom of the seaweed can touch the rice on the top.
- Use the bamboo mat to shape, using a little firm pressure. If the rice doesn't touch, that means it was overfilled.
- If the seaweed does not close fully, moisten your finger with a little water on the edge and seal it.
- Lightly brush the surface of the seaweed roll with sesame oil.
- Use a sharp serrated knife to cut ⅓ inch pieces, about 10 pieces in total per roll.
- Place onto a serving plate.
- Garnish with sesame seeds if you desire.
- Repeat with the remaining ingredients.
