Drug Kimbap (Mini Kimbap)
Hi guys!
I’ve been traveling for over 2 weeks now. I’m visiting my family in WA right now and will be in Korea in a week to visit my husband! 🙂 It’s been so much fun and lovely time with my family in WA but can’t wait to see my love in Korea! I’m super excited!!
Today here in WA, it’s very sunny and beautiful! Sunny day mostly makes me craving Korean Kimbap(Gimbap), which is the most popular picnic food in Korea. We have so many different kinds of kimbap and today I’m going to share with you that very easy and simple to make yet, super addictive! We call Mayak Kimbap; Mayak means drug and this kimbap has this odd name because it’s really addictive when you start eating it, very hard to stop. lol
As you can see, they are adorable!! So small, tiny and cute!
The ingredients in kimbap is only 3 kinds and no animal product/protein inside, so it’s perfect vegetarian and vegan menu! 🙂
It’s also perfect party/finger food, and the filling can be customized for your taste.
I hope you give a try this Drug Kimbap at home and enjoy with your loved ones! 😀
