📝 Ingredients

Seasoned Rice
* 1 1/2 cup Japanese short grain sushi rice uncooked
* 2 cups water
* 2 tbs rice vinegar
* 1 tbs sugar
* 1/2 tsp salt

Tuna

* 1 4.5 oz can tuna, drained
* 2 tbs Kewpie mayonnaise
* 2 tsp sriracha to taste
* 1/2 tsp rice vinegar
* 1 green onion chopped
* 1/4 tsp salt

Toppings

* 3 sheets toasted nori
* Furikake seasoning
* Toasted sesame seeds
* Togarashi seasoning (optional for extra spice)

👩🏻‍🍳 Instructions

1. Rinse and cook the rice with 2 cups of water in rice cooker.

2. After cooking rice season it in a small bowl with rice vinegar, sugar and salt. Mix until combined.

3. Mix the spicy tuna. In a large mixing bowl, add the tuna, kewpie mayonnaise, sriracha, rice vinegar, green onion, and salt. Mix until combined.

Assemble

4. Using an onigiri mold, add the seasoned rice to the mold filling it about halfway and press your thumb or a measuring spoon into the rice to create a well. Then fill with about 1 tablespoon of the spicy tuna mixture and then cover with more rice. Firmly place the lid of the mold on top and then release it from the mold. Repeat until all the rice is used.

5. Cut the nori into 4” x 1 ½” wide strips and wrap one strip around the base of the onigiri.

6. Roll the edge of the rice with furikake seasoning, toasted sesame seeds, or togarashi seasoning for more spice. Enjoy!
