Preparation:

1. When rice is almost cooled, mix with sesame oil and salt.
2. Stir fry carrots briefly with a dash of salt.
3. Stir fry cucumber with a dash of salt.
4. Whisk eggs until evenly yellow and fry into flat omelet.
5. Cut cooked egg into long strips.
6. Cook bulgogi according to recipe directions.
7. Using a bamboo sushi roller or a piece of tin foil, lay the dried seaweed shiny side down.
8. Spread about ½ cup of rice onto 2/3 of the seaweed, leaving the top 1/3 bare (if you moisten your fingers or a spoon to pat down the rice, you'll get less of a sticky mess).
9. Lay the first ingredient down around 1/3 of the way up from the bottom of the seaweed.
10. Lay the other fillings down on top.
11. Roll from the bottom (as if you're rolling a sleeping bag), pressing down to make the fillings stay in.
12. As you continue to roll, pull the whole thing down towards the end of the bamboo mat.
13. Spread a tiny dab of water along the top seam to hold the roll together.
14. Set aside and continue with other seaweed sheets.
15. Cut each roll into 7-8 pieces.
