Kimbap Ingredients- 1 can (small size) canned tuna
- 2-3 servings cooked rice
- Pickled radish (to taste)
- Ham (to taste)
- Imitation crab sticks (to taste)
- Generous amount of mayonnaise
- A pinch of sugar
- Dried seaweed sheets (for kimbap)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
We’ll be making about 2-3 rolls of kimbap. Prepare a small can of tuna. The key to delicious tuna kimbap is the tuna mayo filling, but adding other ingredients like pickled radish, ham, imitation crab sticks, or eggs to your preference will make it even more delightful.
Step 2
Drain the oil from the canned tuna thoroughly using a sieve. If too much oil remains, the kimbap can become soggy. For the tuna mayo sauce, use a generous amount of mayonnaise and add a small pinch of sugar to enhance the sweetness.
Step 3
Mix the drained tuna, mayonnaise, and sugar well until evenly combined. This tuna mayo mixture adds a wonderful umami flavor as a kimbap filling. You can also mix it directly with rice to enjoy a tuna mayo rice bowl!
Step 4
Season the rice that will go into the kimbap. In warm cooked rice, add a pinch of salt and sesame oil, then mix gently. Use a rice paddle to break up any clumps and ensure the seasoning is evenly distributed. Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed.
Step 5
Place a seaweed sheet on a bamboo rolling mat. Spread the seasoned rice thinly over the seaweed, leaving a small border at the top edge to help seal the roll. Arrange your prepared fillings like pickled radish, ham, and imitation crab sticks, then add a generous amount of the tuna mayo sauce. Roll it up tightly using the bamboo mat.
Step 6
Once rolled, lightly brush the outside of the seaweed with sesame oil for a nice sheen, making it look more appetizing. To cut cleanly, lightly dampen a kimbap knife or a regular knife with water and slice the roll into your desired thickness.
Step 7
Even with these simple ingredients, you can enjoy incredibly tasty Tuna Mayo Kimbap! Try making this generous kimbap packed with plenty of tuna mayo filling. It’s simple yet satisfying, making it a highly recommended dish for a weekend lunch!
