About the Recipe

While this recipe is good enough to eat by itself as a snack or as a lunch box filler, why not pair it with a hearty miso soup to make it into a satisfying and nourishing lunch?

Ingredients

260g cooked japanese rice


2 tbsp cooked sweetcorn


2 tsp white sesame seeds


1/2 tsp salt


2 strips of nori (4cm x 12cm / 1.5 inch X 4.5 inch)

Preparation

put the rice, sweetcorn, sesame & salt in a bowl and 

mix well (but avoid mashing the rice)


wet your hands to stop the rice from sticking


take half of the rice mixture and shape it into a flat, triangular ball (don't worry if it doesn't look right first time - just try it again!)


once, you have a nice triangular shape, wrap the nori around the onigiri


repeat for your second onigiri and you're done!
