<TUNA MAYO ONIGIRI/ ツナマヨおにぎり>
＜Yield> 2 servings (2 rice balls)
<Prep time> 6 minutes
<Cook time> 0 mins (does not include time to cook rice)
<Ingredients>
½ teaspoon salt
1 sheet nori seaweed
tuna mayo filling
1 canned tuna (80g), drained
2 tablespoon cucumber pickles, chopped
1 tablespoons Japanese mayonnaise
1 teaspoon Soy sauce
black pepper
<Directions>
1. Mix together the steamed rice with the salt. Finely chop the pickles.
2. Drain the oil from the canned tuna. Mix it together with soy sauce, mayo, black pepper and the chopped pickles.
3. Place a quarter of the steamed rice (step 1) onto the plastic wrap. Add 1 tablespoons worth of tuna-mayo filling on top. Close it with another quarter of the steamed rice. Wrap it up and make a triangle shape. Repeat the same process for another one.
4. Wrap up the onigiri with a sheet of nori seaweed just before you eat. Now it's ready to be enjoyed.
<Miwa’s tips>
・For the soy sauce, depending on which product you use, the sodium content differs. Please adjust the taste by adding more or less soy sauce and salt.
・Make sure the rice is sushi rice.
<Recommended side dish>
<Storage time>
Keep them in an air-tight container for 1 day. If you keep them in the fridge, the rice ball will get dry easily. It is ok to leave it at room temperature for a couple hours if the room isn't too hot.
