Easy  Yaki Onigiri

1

In a small bowl, combine flaked salmon, Japanese mayo, soy sauce, sesame oil, rice vinegar, & sriracha (if using). Set aside.

2

In the onigiri mold, sprinkle a pinch of salt, then fill about halfway with rice. Dip your fingers/spoon with some water to help prevent sticking & create a small divot in the center.

3

Add salmon filling in the center, then another layer of rice to fill the mold with a tiny bit more salt on top.

4

Cover with the mold's top & firmly press down. You should feel a bit of resistance, otherwise, add a bit more rice. Press the back of the onigiri mold to release the triangle shape onigiri.

5

To a frying pan on medium heat, carefully place the onigiri on the pan & cook until browned & crispy on the bottom.

6

Brush soy sauce on the grilled rice balls, flip, & cook until each side is golden brown & caramelized. Keep a close eye so it doesn't burn. Carefully remove & enjoy immediately!

7

Enjoy immediately or wrap them individually in plastic wrap for road trip adventures, weekend picnics, or workday lunches!
