Dairy-Free Spam Musubi with Furikake

Ingredients

• 4 cups Cooked sushi rice
• 1 can Spam
• 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon Sugar
• 1 tablespoon Mirin
• 6 sheets Nori seaweed sheets
• 2 tablespoons Furikake

Instructions

1. 1Slice the 1 can Spam into 6 equal pieces, each about 1/2-inch thick.
2. 2In a small bowl, combine the 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 1 tablespoon sugar, and 1 tablespoon mirin. Whisk until the sugar is dissolved.
3. 3Heat a skillet over medium heat, about 325°F (163°C). Place the 6 Spam slices in the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, until they are browned and slightly crispy. During the last minute of cooking, brush the Spam slices with the soy sauce mixture.
4. 4Prepare your musubi mold or shape your hands into a rectangle. Place a sheet of 6 sheets nori seaweed on a clean, dry surface with the shiny side down.
5. 5Place about 2/3 cup of the 4 cups cooked sushi rice into the musubi mold or shape it into a rectangle on the nori. Sprinkle the 2 tablespoons furikake evenly over the rice.
6. 6Place one slice of the cooked Spam on top of the furikake-dusted rice.
7. 7Using the musubi mold or your hands, press the rice and Spam together firmly. Then, wrap the nori seaweed sheet around the musubi, using a little water on the edge of the nori to seal it closed.
8. 8Repeat steps 5 through 7 for the remaining 5 musubi, using the rest of the cooked sushi rice and Spam slices.
9. 9Serve the 6 Spam Musubi immediately, or wrap each one individually in plastic wrap for later enjoyment.
