hey I’m M and today on Statue I’m going
to show you how to make a super easy and
delicious salmon Rice Bowl let’s get
started first heat up a frying pan or
medium and add about 1 teaspoon worth of
butter once it’s melted add 100 G of
salmon fillet this one has already been
deboned and I remov the skin fry this
for a couple of minutes on each side or
until it’s cooked all the way
through
once it reaches this point use a spatula
to break it up into flakes it’s up to
you how small you break it the smaller
the flakes the more evenly it will
disperse through the rice but some
people prefer big chunks of salmon and
that’s fine too mine has a mixture of
big and small pieces and I’m happy with
that so now I’m going to add 1
tablespoon of soy sauce and continue to
cook until it’s absorbed and there is no
liquid left in the
pan butter and soy sauce is a popular
flavor combination in Japan it’s rich
and salty it’s really good okay this
looks great so let’s take off the heat
and transfer it to a heat pre
bow add about 350 G of cooked Japanese
rice that’s about 3/4 of a US cup or one
Japanese rice cup before cooking then
add half a tablespoon of white sesame
seeds and 2 tablespoons of finely
chopped green onion or scallion mix the
rice using a cut and fold motion with
edge of a rice puddle or spatula this
will help prevent crushing the
rice it’s also important to mention that
you must use Japanese short grain white
rice for rice balls it has a sticky
texture that falls its shape I usually
use a rice cooker to cook my rice but if
you want to know how to cook perfect
Japanese rice check out my rice video to
learn
how Okay this looks good so let’s shape
if you’re shaping by hand wet your hands
with cold water to stop the rice from
sticking take a handful and gently press
into a
bowl
turn and press the ball to shape it into
a triangle like this if you want all of
the rice balls to be the same size you
might find it helpful to divide the rice
into portions before you start
shaping okay I’m happy with this so
finally WRA the Nori and it’s
complete if you’re not confident then in
your shaping skills you can use a
plastic rice ball mode like
this they’re very cheap easy to use and
also easy to clean simply fill it up
with the rice to the top and use the
edge of the rice paddle to spread it
into the
corners so pack it moderately to the top
and then push the lid down like this
finally wrap with Nori and that’s
it
easy and delicious salmon rice balls
flavored with butter and soy sauce I
hope you enjoy this recipe if you want
