  • 2 bowls of bean sprout rice
  • 2 sheets of triangular kimbap seaweed

Cooking Instructions

Step 1

Prepare to make delicious onigiri using leftover bean sprout rice. This is a smart recipe to utilize bean sprout rice that would otherwise be discarded.

Step 1

Step 2

Add finely crumbled stir-fried anchovies from your refrigerator. The savory flavor of the anchovies will enhance the onigiri’s taste.

Step 2

Step 3

Next, prepare the stir-fried tuna and kimchi to add a spicy kick. Using spicy tuna will make it even more delicious.

Step 3

Step 4

Combine the crumbled stir-fried anchovies and stir-fried tuna and kimchi with the bean sprout rice and mix well.

Step 4

Step 5

Do not add sesame oil or sesame seeds separately. The tuna itself has enough oil, and sesame oil can make the rice sticky when frozen. Also, the ingredients’ natural seasoning is sufficient, so no additional seasoning is needed. Let the natural flavors of the ingredients shine.

Step 5

Step 6

Spread out the triangular kimbap seaweed and place the triangular onigiri mold on top to shape it.

Step 6

Step 7

Place a handful of rice into the onigiri mold and press firmly to pack it tightly. Press hard to ensure the rice grains are compacted.

Step 7

Step 8

Carefully remove the rice from the mold, then wrap it with the triangular kimbap seaweed and shape it to finish. Finally, attach a sticker to complete your delicious triangular onigiri.

Step 8

Step 9

The freshly made warm onigiri can be enjoyed immediately. This super simple ‘food waste’ triangular onigiri, made using bean sprout rice, stir-fried anchovies, and stir-fried tuna and kimchi from your fridge, is now complete!

Step 10

For freezing, wrap each onigiri individually in plastic wrap and place them in the freezer. This prevents them from sticking together, making them easy to take out and eat one by one. Frozen onigiri can be microwaved for about 20 seconds, then lightly pan-fried with a bit of oil on both sides for a delicious grilled onigiri, similar to those found in Japan.
