Honey Spam Musubi

Course Mains
Cuisine Asian

Ingredients  

  • 1 12oz can spam, cut into 8 slices
  • 2 cups white rice better to add more water than less when cooking so rice is sticky and holds its shape
  • 3 sheets nori seaweed sheets, cut into 8 strips

Sauce

  • 2 Tbsp honey
  • 1.5 Tbsp low sodium soy sauce
  • 1 Tbsp mirin
  • 1/2 tsp sesame oil

Instructions 

  • Start your rice cooking in your rice cooker.
  • Cut the can of Spam into 8 slices. (Rinse out your Spam can and set aside to dry, we will use this as our mold later on).
  • Make your sauce by mixing all of your sauce ingredients together until combined
  • Pan fry your Spam slices until they begin to change color, then top the spam with some of the sauce. Flip the Spam slices and then top with more of the sauce. Keep repeating this until all of the sauce is on the Spam. Then remove from heat.
  • Line your Spam can with plastic wrap.
  • Place 1/4 cup of rice into the lined can and a slice of Spam on top of the rice. Make sure to push the rice and the Spam down tightly. This will help ensure that the musubi comes out looking like musubi. Lift the plastic wrap out of the can and place it on top of one of your nori sheet slices. Wrap the slice of nori around your musubi. Repeat until all your Spam is made.
