The ingredients needed to make Rice Sandwich ‘Onigirazu’:

  3. Make ready <Filling Suggestions>

Onigirazu is wrapped on the outside with seaweed, just like a traditional onigiri, and includes rice with various fillings as well. Onigirazu fillings are less traditional than that of onigiri and can be likened to Japanese-style sandwich fillings. Essentially, onigirazu may be thought of as a hybrid Japanese rice ball sandwich. When rice completes cooking, transfer rice to another bowl and gently fluff with the rice spatula.

Instructions to make Rice Sandwich ‘Onigirazu’:
  1. Place thin layer of Cooked Short Grain Rice in the centre of a Nori sheet, shape it into a square so that it would be easy to wrap.
  2. Place the filling of your choice, then cover with another layer of Rice. At this point, I recommend to press down the layers keeping the square shape. Use a piece of plastic warp to prevent the rice sticks to your hands.
  3. Fold in a corner and its opposite side corner, then another corner and its opposite side corner to make a square shape. Turn it over, then the moisture will help the corners stick together.
  4. Pack the ‘Onigirazu’ as it is or cut in half and pack for your lunch.
  5. A. Tariyaki Chicken & Shiso *1 serving - Season 1 Chicken Thigh Fillet with Salt. Combine 1 teaspoon Sugar, 2 teaspoons Soy Sauce and 1 teaspoon Mirin in a small bowl. Heat a small mount of Oil and cook chicken. When cooked, add the sauce and cook until the sauce is almost gone. 2 to 3 Shiso leaves will add fantastic flavour.
  6. B. ‘Goma-ae’ Spinach & Scrambled Egg *1 serving - Place a handful of Baby Spinach in a colander, pour over boiling water, then cool with cold water. Squeeze to remove excess water. Combine 1 teaspoon Ground Toasted Sesame Seeds, 1/2 teaspoon Sugar and 1 teaspoon Soy Sauce, and combine with Spinach. Scrambled Egg can be seasoned with Salt.
  7. C. Canned Tuna & Cucumber *1 serving - Drain a 95g Canned Tuna and remove excess liquid. Add 1 tablespoon Japanese Mayonnaise, Salt & Pepper and mix well. Cucumber slices can be seasoned with Salt, then dried as water comes out.
  8. Other Filling Ideas: Grilled Salted Salmon, Ham & Cheese, Fried Fish, Stir-fried Veggies, Hamburg Steak, Chicken Soboro, Dry Curry, Chicken Nuggets, etc. - *Note: Soy Sauce and Miso seasoned food, or salty food are most suitable for filling. ‘Takikomi Gohan’ and ‘Mazegohan’ are all suitable for ‘Onigirazu’.

Place a sheet of nori squarely on the plastic wrap. Onigirazu are a perfect Japanese rice sandwiche idea! They are so filling, delicious, and customisable so you can put whatever you like in them.
