Preparing the Ingredients.
Before assembling your beef kimbap, make sure all the ingredients are prepared. Start by cutting the rib-eye steak into thin strips and cooking it until done. Then cut up assorted vegetables, such as spinach and carrots, into thin strips as well. Finally, prepare the seaweed wrap by moistening it with water. Once everything is ready to go, you can begin assembling the dish!
Cook the Beef and Seasoning.
Start by cooking the rib-eye steak in a heated pan with some sesame oil until it’s just done. Then season the steak with a few teaspoons of soy sauce, sugar and a pinch of pepper. Let the ingredients simmer together for 2 minutes to let the flavors develop, and then set aside. Lastly, sprinkle some sesame seeds on top and allow them to lightly toast during this time.
Assemble the Kimbap Rolls
First, lay out the seaweed sheets on a clean work surface. Then, spread a spoonful of rice in the center of each sheet of seaweed. Place the cooked steak strips and other toppings such as pickled radish strips, carrots and spinach across the top. Finally, use your hands to carefully roll up each kimbap so that the topping ingredients are completely enclosed in the seaweed roll.
Cut and Serve the Kimbap Rolls.
Once you’re rolls are finished, use a sharp knife to cut each one into 1-inch pieces. Serve the kimbap with gochujang (Korean chili paste) and ssamjang (thick fermented soybean paste) for dipping! Enjoy your authentic homemade beef kimbap
