korean food; Kim-bap

kimbap
It has been raining all night and day.I got soaked in the rain while walking the twins to school,i got angry not at the rain but the baby sitter who drove Kachi to school but didn’t think of coming to drop the twins and I.After trying to get in touch with her on phone to no avil ,took a bold step and entered the rain better wet than stay at home with those two chaps.
The babysitter came around after telling her my mind,she apologised and we settled down to make one of my favourites Korean food Kim-bap (rolled rice).
Ingredients
• 4 cups hot cooked Korean rice
• 1 big carrot
• Sliced ham
• 1 small bottle dark sesame oil
• 10 sheets Kim (dried seaweed leaf)
• 1 sachet imitation crab meat
• Olive oil
• 5 eggs, beaten
• Salt
• 1 big cucumber
• 1 packet sliced pickled yellow radish
• 1 tablespoon sesame seed, toasted
ingredients for kimbap
Let rice cool a bit.
Meanwhile, mix the rice with salt and sesame oil. Sprinkle sesame seeds and mix together
Fry eggs flat like a pancake. Cut egg into strips
Stir fry the other ingredients separately with little olive oil
To roll, fold the seaweed paper (or the bamboo mat - if there is one) so the filling is enclosed in the center of the paper. Roll carefully and slowly, keeping some pressure evenly on the paper (or bamboo mat).
kim-wrap
See i made a small video how to row kimbap.

Remove the mat from around the roll.Slice the roll into 2cm slices, using a large, wet, sharp knife. Do not saw, but cut firmly, straight down, thus keeping the original round shape of the Kimbap.

        well done sister for the fine preparation;
        not doubt, you’ll always warm “oga’s” heart.

          how you must have got him hooked
          that he’s always coming home for lunch!

          i wonder why too! [my fiancee's always on my
          neck for not eating healthy; it's one of the things
          i do that make her go crazy...].

          i guess she’ll want me to add some flesh and all;
          but i, i am just in love with my small, thin, unassuming
          figure! well, maybe when am married i’d add some flesh.

          well done.
