This is my children's favourite lunch. They would fit right in, in a Korean cafeteria. This is the Korean equivalent to our sandwich and the most popular lunch for Korean kids. I have adapted my kim bap to suit my children's tastes and you can too. It looks so pretty it must be complicated, but it's not!!

First you must prep everything. The rice can't be hot but it also can't be cold, it must be slightly warm or room temperature.
