Line your work surface with parchment paper and lay out the gimbap seaweed sheets.
Briefly dip a rice paper sheet into cold water, then press it firmly onto the seaweed without any gaps, ensuring it adheres completely.
If using round rice paper, trim the overhanging edges with scissors and fill in any empty spots neatly.
Let the seaweed and rice paper dry completely until they are stiff and absolutely moisture-free.
Using scissors, cut the dried seaweed into bite-sized pieces.
Pour enough cooking oil into a pan to cover the bottom, heat it up, then place the pieces rice-paper-side down and fry.
Once they puff up and turn white, flip them over and briefly cook the other side, then lift them out and drain on kitchen paper. Let them cool slightly.
When completely cool and perfectly crisp, sprinkle with seasoned salt and sesame seeds to finish.
Press water-moistened rice paper onto seaweed sheets, covering completely.
Dry thoroughly until no moisture remains, then cut into bite-size pieces.
Quick-fry in oil, drain excess oil, and season with salt and sesame seeds.
Cooking tips 💡
Always use cold water when moistening the rice paper; warm water makes it too soft too quickly and difficult to handle.
The seaweed must be bone-dry before frying—any remaining moisture will make it soggy and tough.
When frying, place the rice-paper side down first for the puffiest result.
