    Kimbap triangle

    Jump to Recipe·Print Recipe

    Easiest and quickest meal you can whip up is ‘kimbap triangle’, also known as ‘samgak kimbap. Koreans call it samgak gimbap whereas in Japan, it’s called onigiri. In our household, we call it rice ball with our kids. While there is a debate on how to call this dish, onigiri vs kimbap, there really is no difference in how you make them. 

    Whichever way it is called, these kimbap triangles are super easy to make, great as kids snack or quick kids meal. I love making it with Tuna since all you need is a tuna can and you don’t really need to cook anything else, other than rice!

    So let’s enjoy this 15 minute quick meal - my favorite Korean rice balls, Tuna Kimbap Triangle.

    Description

    Super easy 15 minute meal that's nutritious and healthy and yummy - Kimbap triangle, also known as tuna onigiri or samgak kimbap


    Ingredients

    3. Using the tray (if you have it), add rice at the bottom and ensure all corners are all well covered.
    4. Add tuna (the amount depends on the try size) but more tuna you add, the more tastier it gets.
