The key is to thinly julienne the fish cake. That way, it rolls up well even if you fill the gimbap generously. Coat a pan with cooking oil and stir-fry the fish cake first over medium heat until golden brown.

[Check] You should stir-fry the fish cake first so that the moisture evaporates and the texture becomes chewy.


2. Add the magic sauce

Pour in the prepared seasoning, such as gochujang, red pepper powder, and soy sauce. At this point 3 tablespoons of waterPlease be sure to include this.

When the broth has almost evaporated and the fish cakes have a glossy sheen, turn off the heat, sprinkle with sesame oil and whole sesame seeds, and let it cool.


3. Season the rice (Very important!)

Add sesame oil, a pinch of seasoned salt, and whole sesame seeds to the warm rice and mix well.

If you skip seasoning the rice thinking, "The fish cake is salty anyway," the gimbap will taste bland. It is a success only if the rice tastes good on its own.

🛡️Failure Prevention 3 (Make sure to follow these!)

3 tablespoons of water: If you don't add water when adding the seasoning, the red pepper powder burns quickly and tastes bitter!

Cooling rice: If you place very hot rice directly onto the seaweed, the seaweed becomes tough and shrinks.

No greed: If you put in too much fish cake, even the Diamond Fist won't be able to handle it. (Keep it in moderation!)
