Spam rice ball style" made with fish sausage

Spam onigiri (= pork and egg onigiri) is a well-known Okinawan delicacy. That slightly junky taste is addictive, isn't it! Sometimes I want to eat it at home, but canned Spam is quite expensive....

Then I suddenly realized something. Fish sausage is a little bit like Spam...?

So I made Spam rice balls (like Spam onigiri) using inexpensive fish sausage that I could get my hands on, and they were delicious! They are not as greasy as Spam, so they are easy to eat, yet still filling, so I recommend them.

Fish Sausage "Spam Onigiri Style" Recipe

Ingredients

(This is the quantity for 4 onigiri.

1 fish sausage
1 egg
Nori (seaweed) to taste
About 2 bowls of rice

The egg will be used as an omelet, so also prepare seasonings of your choice such as salt and pepper, soy sauce and sugar. Also, mayonnaise and karashi to taste.

Directions

Cook the omelets thinly with your favorite seasoning and cut into quarters.

Slice the fish sausage in half, slice it in half again, and fry it on both sides in a pan. If it is moderately browned, it is OK.

Sprinkle salt (not included) lightly on your hands, and grip the rice in a bale shape. Place the omelet and fish sausage on top of the rice, cut the rice into appropriate sizes, wrap it in nori seaweed, and you're done!

How does it taste?

The slightly browned fish sausage is crispy and juicy inside. The mild sweetness of the egg omelet matches the saltiness and umami of the fish sausage. And of course, it goes well with rice! This is as good as the original Spam Nigiri...!

You can eat it as it is and it still tastes good, but you can also put mayonnaise or mustard on it if you like. It makes me want to drink Orion beer! It's a quick and healthy way to enjoy Okinawan food, so give it a try if you feel like having Okinawan food at home.
