Cheap ingredients, easy to make, its worth the process.
Ingredients:
Half a can of tuna (buy the cheapest one, it doesn't taste any different from those higher price sisters)
Half a tin Sweetcorn (again, buy the cheapest one)
A dallop of Mayonaise
Cool rice (you don't wanna burn your hands while holding it)
Melted butter
Japanese soy sauce
Seaweed strips
Method:
1. Mix tuna, sweetcorn and mayo together in a bowl.
2. Take a handful of rice, press it flat.
3. Scoop half a spoonful of the mixed ingredients.
4. Place another handful of rice on top of the ingredients.
5. Using your hands, squish and press the rice into a ball shape. This is where your creative technique will come into good use.
6. Slather the rice ball with the melted butter and soy sauce with a brush (I'd purposely bought this brush just for making the balls and it costed me £2)7. Place strips of seaweed on top of the balls (for decoration purposes).
8. Oh yeah, before that, you have to preheat your oven at 180 degrees. Then pop in your rice balls until the outer layer turns a bit brown and hard.
9. Serve while its hot.
This is a very filling dish, after having 3 balls, I was so full. But I think that the dish is not salty enough, yeah, I know, stupid right?? For not seasoning the rice and the mixture with salt (I thought that the soy sauce would be salty enough to make the ball tasty).*****************************************************************************
Side note, remember to add salt into the rice balls and mixture ^__^
