Step:
Combine warmed Cooked Short Grain Rice, Soy Sauce and Dashi Powder in a bowl. *Note: you can use ‘Mentsuyu’ instead.
Add Spring Onion and Cheese, and Chilli if you like, then mix well.
Make 2 to 3 Onigiri, round OR triangle, about 2cm thin. You must pack the rice mixture VERY FIRMLY, otherwise they will collapse while being cooked.
*Tips: It is safe and easy to make Onigiri using plastic food wrap. Place a scoop of rice mixture in the centre of the wrap, then pack VERY FIRMLY and shape it.
Heat Butter in a small frying pan, non-stick preferable, over medium heat and cook Onigiri until both sides are browned and crispy.
Brush extra Soy Sauce if you like, and enjoy.
