Prepare the Rice
Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Cook the rice according to package instructions. Once cooked, let it cool slightly and mix in the sesame oil and salt.

Assemble the Gimbap
Lay a sheet of nori on a bamboo mat or clean surface, shiny side down. Spread a thin layer of sushi rice over the nori, leaving about 1 inch at the top edge. Layer the kimchi, carrot, cucumber, and avocado in a line across the center of the rice.

Roll the Gimbap
Using the bamboo mat, carefully roll the gimbap away from you, applying gentle pressure to keep the roll tight. Seal the edge of the nori with a little water.

Slice and Serve
Use a sharp knife to slice the rolled gimbap into bite-sized pieces. Sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds and serve with extra kimchi on the side.
