I wanted to contribute my children's favorite grilled onigiri to the Tasty Onigiri series.Firmly shape the onigiri otherwise they will break apart when flipped over.Be sparing with the vegetable oil, or else it will taste oily.If the onigiri falls apart when flipping them over, just break them up and serve them with gochujang.That way, you can make them pass as Korean-style bibimbap.

Japanese traditional food. It's sanitary to hold a rice by using plastic wrap.

My sons aren't really satisfied with just plain rice balls so I add a bit of flavour to them.It's really easy - just mix and cook. Add anything you like - shio-konbu seaweed, sesame, shiso leaf, tarako cod roe etc. Recipe by Hoink

On a day when I was planning to make onigiri, I cut my hand with a vegetable slicer.Since I couldn't touch the rice with my hands, I decided to roll the ingredients and it was surprisingly good.-A tip is to roll tightly. If it's loose, the rice and ingredients will spill out when slicing.-Salt the rice well. Taste before rolling.-Another tip is to wet the knife after each slice to guarantee a clean cut.

Onigiri don't have to be triangular! You can make them round or cylindrical!And you can make them square too!Change the depth of the cut off milk carton to make thin onigiri or thick onigiri.Since you don't form the rice with your hands, you can form the onigiri when you are in a hurry even if the rice is hot. Recipe by MAYOMAYO.

I make onigiri every day for my husband to take to work for breakfast.I was just thinking of ways of varying the onigiri so that he doesn't get too bored.I tend to make pretty big onigiri, so if you prefer smaller ones, you can make 2 onigiri with 1 egg. For 1 rice ball. Recipe by Makirin

My family loves the combination of shiso and cheese.Please adjust the amount of ingredients to your liking. I approximated the amount of rice by 4 breakfast servings (2 rice balls each). If you're halving the recipe, toss the whole package of bonito flakes, because it tastes delicious when there's lots. You can add edamame to make it colorful. Recipe by miyuki12

When I was a child, my grandmother used to make this onigiri with her big hands. She used to spread out shredded nori on top of newspaper and roll the onigiri around... This is my favorite onigiri with lots of memories. Because you use shredded nori, the nori won't break apart, thus making it easier to eat. It's safe for your children that way.Use your favorite fillings. Adjust the size to your liking. It's easier to coat with nori if it's very round, but you can also adjust that too. If you work on plastic wrap, it will get all sticky, so use parchment paper. For 2 servings. Recipe by Mikki-an

Since Kimchi goes so well with BBQ, I created this onigiri recipe.These were a hit with my friends. They ate them all up so fast, we wished we had more.★ If the rice clumps while you're stir-frying it, use a rice paddle to mix it gently with a cutting motion so the grains of rice don't break.★ These are even more delicious if you char the rice a little bit. This makes the onigiri deliciously fragrant, like yaki-onigiri (grilled rice balls). Recipe by Mizorecchifan

I made these for my daughter who loves meat-wrapped onigiri but hates vegetables.You don't need to oil the frying pan.I used thinly-sliced pork belly for this recipe.Sprinkle some sesame seeds on top to serve if you like. Recipe by YUKIKI

I made onigiri with buttered rice, which is my kid's favourite.*The mixture is a little bit oily, as it includes butter, so use plastic wrap when shaping if you'd prefer.*If you use salted butter, adjust the amount of salt accordingly. Recipe by Akane
