Ingredients
- 3 short grain rice cooker cups (2 1/4 US cup or 600 g) rice, cooked
Seasoning for Rice
- 2 Tbsp rice vinegar + 1 Tbsp (optional)
- 4 tsp sugar
- 1 tsp Sea Salt (Trader Joe's)
Carrots
- 2 large carrot , julienned
- 1/2 tsp sugar + 1/2 tsp (optional)
- sesame oil
- 1 pinch sesame seeds
- salt and pepper
- vegetable oil
Sauce
- 1 Tbsp soy sauce (진간장 jinkanjang)
- 2 tsp rice or white vinegar
- 2 tsp sugar
- 1 tsp honey
1/2 tsp Yellow Mustard (mix powder and water, let it sit for 5 min)
- 1/2 tsp yellow mustard powder
- 1/2 tsp water
OPTIONAL - 3 persian cucumbers, cut into quarters lengthwise
Instructions
- Cook rice in rice cooker or in pot. Try to make rice on the dry side.
- Saute julienned carrots on medium heat in a pan with some oil. After sauteeing for few minutes, when the carrots are almost cooked, season with salt and pepper and about 1/2 tsp to 1 tsp sugar. Transfer to a plate and let it cool.
- Make Soy Mustard (겨자간장 Gyeoja Kanjang) by mixing soy sauce, vinegar, sugar, honey and yellow mustard.
- Make rice seasoning by mixing vinegar, sugar and salt.
- Once rice is cooked, transfer to a bowl and while the rice is still hot, add the vinegar seasoning. Mix the rice well while cooling it down.
- Make mini kimbap by laying out the dried nori (gim) on the bamboo sushi rolling mat. Use as little rice as possible to ensure you will have *mini* kimbap.
Notes
- To prevent rice from sticking to your fingers when spreading the rice on the nori/gim, prepare a small bowl with water and wet your hands before you spread the rice.
- Also, if you have a few rice grains on your fingers, spread them throughout the nori (into the area above where the rice mainly is) so that it can work as a glue when you roll the gimbap/sushi.
