Serves 3
Directions

- 4Slice the red cabbage very thinly.
- 5Crack 5 large eggs into a measuring cup.
- 6Add a pinch of salt to the eggs.
- 7Whisk the eggs until well combined.
- 8Pour a thin layer of whisked eggs into a lightly oiled nonstick pan.
- 9Cook the egg layer until just set, like a flat omelette, without browning.
- 10Roll the cooked egg layer and slice it into thin strips.
- 11Quickly sauté the julienned carrots in a pan with a little oil.
- 12Drain a can of tuna and put it into a bowl.
- 13Add mayonnaise to the tuna.
- 14Add salt and pepper to the tuna mixture.
- 15Mix the tuna, mayo, salt, and pepper until creamy to create the tuna mayo filling.
- 16Place a sheet of gim/nori (seaweed paper) on a flat surface.
- 17Spread a thin, even layer of egg strips across the bottom 2/3 of the nori sheet.
- 18Add carrots in a horizontal line on top of the egg strips.
- 19Add tuna mayo filling in the center.
- 20Add sliced red cabbage next to the tuna mayo.
- 21Starting from the bottom, roll the kimbap tightly, gently pulling back to keep everything compact.
- 22Lightly dab the edge of the nori with a little water to seal it.
- 23Repeat for additional rolls depending on the amount of filling left.
