ingredients:
- 2 servings (4 ounces each)
- hot steamed rice
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
step 1:
Wet both hands. Place 1 serving hot rice in one hand.
step 2:
Bend the other hand. Cover the rice with the bended hand and press down.
step 3:
Shape the rice into a rough triangle. Move it around several times.
step 4:
Grill the rice balls on low heat on a net placed over the stove burner, or sear them in a frying pan on low heat. After they change color, grill (or sear) the opposite side.
step 5:
After the side changes color, spread the top side of the rice balls with soy sauce, using a cooking brush which has been soaked in soy sauce. Turn over and also spread the opposite side with soy sauce.
step 6:
Repeat Step 5 for each rice ball.
comment:
Rice balls are often eaten cold; however this rice ball is usually eaten hot. The surface of the rice ball is crisp and the interior is fluffy, which gives it a unique taste.
