    Instructions

    Tuna Filling

    • In a bowl, mix tuna, mayo, soy sauce, sesame oil, sugar, pepper, and green onions. Set aside.

    Rice Balls

    • Wet hands and scoop about 1 dl rice into your hand. Flatten into your palm.

    • Spoon in a heaping tablespoon of tuna filling, then fold the rice around it and shape into a thick disc. Compact firmly and set aside.

    • Mix soy sauce, mirin, sesame oil, and water. Lightly brush on the bottom and sides of each rice ball.

    • Heat a lightly oiled non-stick pan over medium heat. Sear the rice balls on the brushed side until crisp and golden.

    • Flip to lightly warm the other side. Top each rice ball with Emborg Perfect Slices for Sandwich.

    • Transfer to an oven-safe tray and broil for 3-5 minutes until the cheese is melty and golden brown.

    • Garnish with furikake. Serve and enjoy!

    Day-old cooked rice works best for this recipe to give that extra crispy finish
