Onigiri my style

Just because my kids are crazy about the BBQ Chicken Rice Wrap, I decided to make them myself! At least it’s fresher and I know what went into them! So the preparation begins!! ❤️❤️❤️

I got helper to prepare the rice and stir fry some marinated minced chicken. I added the Japanese rice flakes and sesame oil to the rice and mix them up. Using the Daiso onigiri mould, i add a scoop of rice then make a small hollow in the center, adding a spoon of minced chicken, then some chicken floss, and cover with rice. Press hard and pop over to the seaweed. I realised that hand mould onigiri seems to hold better than the mould. Cos the rice doesnt seems as compact and sticks well or maybe I am not good with using the mould. The 3 sides of the triangle keeps want to loosen up. 

I diligently went to Daiso and get the nice onigiri wrapper! So cute that I got 3 packets of them. And also grab the seaweed there too! Happy that the kids love the onigiri and had a good snack after school. Misson Success!!
