Ingredients

3

3 servings

  • 12 oz cooked crawfish tail meat
  • 2 tablespoons japanese mayonnaise
  • 1 ½ teaspoons wasabi paste
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1 cup cooked rice
  • 1 tablespoon furikake
  • 1 ½ teaspoons black sesame seeds
  • 2 sheets nori, split in half (you will only use 3)

Instructions

  • In a medium bowl, toss the crawfish with the Japanese mayonnaise, wasabi, and sugar until well-coated.
  • Season the cooked rice with the furikake and sesame seeds.
  • Set an 8-inch square of plastic wrap on a flat surface.
  • Scoop about ⅓ cup of the rice onto the plastic wrap and carefully spread out in a circle, about ¼-inch-thick.
  • Add 2-3 tablespoons of the crawfish stuffing to the center of the rice and use the plastic wrap to help shape the onigiri into a ball or triangle shape, completely encasing the crawfish with the rice.
  • Unwrap the plastic wrap, then wrap a half-sheet of nori around the rice ball. Repeat with the remaining ingredients to make 3 onigiri total.
  • Serve immediately.
  • Enjoy!
