Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
- 350 grams cooked short-grain rice (1 rice cooker cup)
- 140 grams thinly sliced beef (4 very thin slices)
- 4 grams shiso (cut into thin ribbons)
- 2 teaspoons vegetable oil
- 3 tablespoons Teriyaki sauce
Instructions
- Use a mortar and pestle or a clean spice grinder to grind the sesame seeds coarsely.
- Add the ground sesame and shiso to the hot cooked rice and fold everything together until it's evenly combined.
- Divide the rice into 4 even segments.
- Cut a piece of plastic wrap onto a work surface, and scoop a quarter of the rice onto it.
- Use the wrap to shape the rice into a thick cylinder and then roll it up in the wrap. Repeat with the remaining 3 segments of rice.
- Spread a sheet of beef out on a cutting board. Unwrap and place an onigiri on the edge of the meat closest to you.
- Roll the rice in the beef, and then fold the sides around it to seal it shut.
- Heat a frying pan over medium heat and add the vegetable oil. Place the meat wrapped onigiri around the pan and let them brown on one side.
- As the onigiri brown, roll them a little to one side to brown a new section. Repeat until the roll is browned on all sides.
- Finish cooking the rolls by turning them on their ends with tongs to cook the sides.
- Once the onigiri are browned on all sides, use a paper towel to soak up all of the excess oil. Add the teriyaki sauce and roll the rice balls continuously until the sauce has thickened into a thick glaze and there's almost none remaining in the pan.
- Serve the Nikumaki Onigiri hot, or pack them into a bento box and let them cool completely before closing the lid.
