About this dish

All the usual gimbap fillings land on a bowl of rice instead of being rolled in seaweed: thin egg strips, sauteed carrot, blanched spinach and torn imitation crab.

There is no laver, pickled radish or fish cake here, so the seasoning lives in the rice itself, tossed with sesame oil and salt. Each topping keeps its own section until the bowl is mixed at the table.

    Blanch 50 g spinach in salted boiling water for 30 seconds, rinse it immediately in cold water, and squeeze out the water.

  4. 4

    Add 1 tsp sesame oil and a little salt to 1 bowl of warm rice, then mix using the edge of a rice paddle.

  5. 5

    Place the seasoned rice in a bowl and arrange the egg strips, carrot, spinach, and imitation crab in separate sections.

  6. 6

    Mix the rice evenly with the egg, carrot, spinach, and imitation crab just before eating.
