 Kimchi Spam Musubi 


Watch how to make it here 💛👇

Usually Spam musubi is made with just Spam and egg. But once you add kimchi too, it becomes a combo Koreans really love. Savory Spam, lightly pan-fried kimchi, and soft egg come together so well in this simple musubi recipe. Today I’m sharing an easy Kimchi Spam Musubi you can make at home.

Ingredients

  • 5 sheets roasted seaweed (gim/nori)
  • 6 eggs
  • A tiny pinch of salt
  • 1 can Spam
  • A few pieces of kimchi (about 3 pieces)
  • Cooked rice (2 bowls)
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • A tiny pinch of salt for the rice
  • A little cooking oil
  • Sesame seeds

How to Make Kimchi Spam Musubi

1. Prepare the Egg: Crack 6 eggs into a bowl. Add a tiny pinch of salt and whisk well. Lightly oil the pan and spread it evenly. Pour in some egg and cook slowly over low heat. Once it’s partially set, roll it up to about the same width as the Spam.



2. Cook the Spam: Cut the Spam slightly thick. Spam releases its own oil, so you only need a little extra oil in the pan. Cook slowly over medium heat until nicely golden. Once browned, place the Spam on a paper towel for a moment to absorb a little extra oil.



3. Cook the Kimchi: Lightly scrape off some of the kimchi seasoning and cut it to match the length of the egg. Lightly oil the pan and place the kimchi in the pan. Once you lightly cook the kimchi, the sourness becomes milder and the flavor gets much deeper.


4. Season the Rice: Add 1 tablespoon sesame oil to the rice and just a tiny pinch of salt.

5. Assemble the Musubi: Place the gim with the rough side facing up. Attach half a piece of gim at the end so it rolls much more securely. Spread the rice evenly without making it too thick, and leave a little space at the end. Then add the Spam, the pan-fried kimchi, and the thick egg.




6. Roll and Slice: Roll it tightly so it holds together well. Lightly wet the end of the gim with a little water to help seal it. Lastly, lightly brush some sesame oil on top and sprinkle a little sesame seeds. The red kimchi, golden egg, and Spam combo is seriously hard to resist.




This combo turned out so good. It’s simple, filling, and really satisfying. Try making this Kimchi Spam Musubi at home sometime.

Tips

  • Cook the egg slowly over low heat for a soft and fluffy texture.
  • Lightly pan-frying the kimchi makes the flavor deeper and less sour.
  • Leave a little empty space at the end of the gim so it seals better when rolled.
  • Coating the knife lightly with sesame oil makes slicing much easier.
