Vegan Kimbap

Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 45 minutes
Servings 8 rolls

Ingredients

  • cups uncooked white rice
  • 5 - 7 dried shiitake mushrooms
  • 1 bunch spinach stems removed
  • ¼ tsp sesame oil
  • ½ tsp tamari
  • 1 carrot julienned
  • 5 strips yellow pickled radish
  • 4 oz marinated firm tofu cut into strips
  • 5 sheets of nori

Instructions

  1. Place the mushrooms in a bowl of water and let them rehydrate for 10 - 15 minutes, then cut them into strips.
  2. Next, add the strips of mushroom to the pan and saute with the tamari for 2 - 3 minutes. Remove the mushrooms from the pan and set aside.
  3. Heat a pan over medium heat and saute the spinach with sesame oil. They should only take a minute or two to become wilted. Remove spinach from the pan and set aside.
  4. To assemble the kimbap, place a piece of nori on a bamboo sushi roller, shiny side down. Add a layer of rice over ¾ of the nori starting with the side closest to you. Then add radish, carrots, mushrooms, tofu, and spinach in a row across the rice about 1 inch from the edge. Now roll the kimbap tightly! Slice into 8 even pieces before serving.
