Ingredients 

Rice Paper Spam Musubi

Teriyaki Sauce

  • ¼ cup soy sauce
  • 3 tablespoon mirin
  • 2 teaspoon grated ginger
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1.5 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon corn starch + 2 tablespoon water to make corn starch slurry

Instructions

  • Cook the white rice according to package instructions in a rice cooker.
    1 cup white rice
  • Make the teriyaki sauce by whisking together the soy sauce, mirin, ginger, garlic, brown sugar, sesame oil, and cornstarch slurry (cornstarch mixed with water). Set aside.
    ¼ cup soy sauce, 3 Tbsp mirin, 2 tsp grated ginger, 2 cloves garlic, 1.5 Tbsp brown sugar, 1 tsp sesame oil, 1 tsp corn starch + 2 tablespoon water
  • Pour the beaten eggs into a small pan and cook for 1 minute, then flip and cook another minute until you have a thin omelette. Cut the egg into rectangular pieces sized to fit your musubi mold. You can use the spam can as a mold!
    5 eggs
  • In a shallow pan, fry the spam on both sides for 2-3 minutes until browned. Add the teriyaki sauce and let it reduce for a few minutes. Remove the spam and reserve the leftover sauce for dipping.
    1 can less-sodium spam
  • Cut each nori sheet into thirds. Lay a nori strip on a flat surface and place the musubi mold on top. Add a layer of cooked rice about ½-inch thick, pressing down to flatten with the mold. Sprinkle furikake on top, then add a piece of egg and a piece of spam. Remove the mold and fold the nori over to cover most of the musubi.
    2 nori seaweed sheets, 5 Tbsp furikake
  • Dip a sheet of rice paper in water to soften, place the musubi on top, fold the edges toward the center, then roll up to fully cover the musubi. Repeat with a second layer of rice paper, then repeat the whole process with the remaining musubi.
    10 sheets rice paper
  • Heat 3 tablespoon neutral oil in a non-stick pan and fry the spam musubi on each side for 2 minutes until crispy. Serve with extra teriyaki sauce.
    3 Tbsp neutral oil
