Rice cooking
First you need to thoroughly rinse the rice under cold water until it becomes completely transparent. Then you need to soak it in water for a few minutes.
Rice needs to be cooked not crumbly, but rather sticky. When it boils, you should reduce the heat, cover it with a lid and cook for ten to fifteen minutes.
Cooking dressing
While the rice is cooking, you can prepare a dressing. To do this, take a small container and mix in it three tablespoons of rice vinegar, a teaspoon of granulated sugar and a pinch of salt. It is necessary to stir this mixture until the salt and sugar are completely dissolved.
After the rice is cooked, it is necessary to remove it from the heat, open the lid and let it cool for just a few minutes. After that, pour in the dressing and mix thoroughly. Then you can put the rice aside so that it is completely saturated with the marinade and finally cool.
Cooking omelet
Now you can cook an egg omelet. In a deep container, you need to mix three eggs and a small amount of salt. Next, with a whisk, beat the eggs until the foam turns white and increases in volume. Then you need to grease the pan with vegetable oil and heat over medium heat. As soon as it becomes hot, carefully pour the mixture and cover it with a lid. Cook the omelette in a few minutes. As soon as the bottom side is cooked, you need to carefully turn the omelette on and turn off the fire: the dish will go on its own in a still hot pan. It is important not to dry it, because because of this, the rolls can turn out to be tasteless. Next, transfer the omelet to a dish and cool it, then cut into thin long strips
Ham or sausage can also be cut into strips and set aside in a separate plate. With pickled radish, you should do the same. According to the kimbab recipe, two types of radish can be used: more spicy and with a neutral, slightly sweet taste. Sea kale should be put on a plate.
Roll spin
It is necessary to prepare for the formation of kimbab: all ingredients must be on the working surface. On the table should be a rug for twisting rolls, cling film and a glass for wetting hands.
Now you can proceed with the formation of the kimbap. The first step is to put a mat for folding the rolls, on top - a cling film and a sheet of nori. Then you need to moisten your hands and lay the boiled rice.
On the bottom of the nori leaf, where the rice is, lay ham, scrambled eggs, pickled radish and sea kale.
Using the mat, carefully roll the roll, stacking its contents more tightly, so that the rice with the filling holds well and it does not fall apart. Also, if you wish, you can follow the recipe for a triangular kimbab: form a triangle from rice, put a filling on it. Cover it with another layer of rice and wrap in a nori leaf.
As soon as the sausage or triangle is formed, it is necessary to remove the cling film from them.
How to cut?
So that the roll hardens a bit and does not fall apart during the cutting process, you can put it in the refrigerator for ten to fifteen minutes. After that, you need to get it out, put it on a flat board, then take a sharp knife and moisten it with cool water, and then cut the sausage first in the middle, and then the two halves turned out into two more equal parts. The triangle does not need to be cut.
What to serve?
The rolls are beautifully laid out on a plate and put the usual soy sauce near them, you can also add mustard or wasabi. There will be no limit to the joy of loved ones! Enjoy your meal!

Sausage and crab sticks, like the rest of the ingredients, should be cut into strips and fry for a short time in a frying pan with vegetable oil, preferably over low heat.
Next, you need to cook rice. You need to cook it the same way as in the 1st recipe. After boiling, for ten to fifteen minutes.
Then boiled rice for sushi should be put on a nori sheet, in the center - a strip of pre-prepared ingredients (cucumber, carrots, scrambled eggs, crab sticks and sausage). You need to carefully roll it all into a roll and let it brew for a bit in the refrigerator for fifteen to twenty-five minutes.
