Or waste not, want not
If you have leftover kimbap, here is an easy and delicious way to use it up. You could also do this with non-leftover kimbap and other kinds of leftover sushi rolls as well. This is great for rolls where the rice is starting to get a little hard, like supermarket sushi tends to do.
Heat about 1/4 inch of vegetable oil in a frying pan. Beat an egg or two, depending on how many slices you have to fry in a bowl. When the oil is hot, dip each side of each piece in the beaten eggs, letting the excess drip off. Fry on each side until the egg is cooked and starting to brown, about 1.5-2 minutes. Drain on paper towels and serve!
This is great plain, very warm and filling and comforting, but I also enjoyed it dipped in a bit of Sriracha hot sauce (rooster sauce). I bet it would be good with ketchup, too, because it reminds me a lot of om rice (fried rice wrapped in an omelet, often served with ketchup on top). I think it would also be good to fry the kimbap in tempura batter, although I haven’t tried it yet.

I would definitely try this with the sushi I usually get. I can eat an impossibly large amount of sushi in one day, but sometimes I do have to leave some for the next day, and it’s not as good. But fried sushi? How can you go wrong with THAT?

It’s awesome, I don’t know why nobody told me about this before!
I never thought of doing this with leftover sushi. It looks so good!

I want to make some more kimbap so I can do this again. It’s the breakfast of champions!
That’s such a clever idea. I’m going to try that next time I have leftover sushi.

I hadn’t thought of frying it like that.
I’ll have to try it and see what my boys say
All the best,

My kids that liked eggs, loved it. I wish the child that I pack a lunch for liked eggs, because these seem like they’d be great in a lunchbox.
Huh-makes me wonder how many other things I could cook French toast style.
