Description
A delicious twist on the classic Hawaiian Spam musubi, combining crispy spam, sticky sushi rice, and savory glaze all baked together for a perfect gathering dish.
Ingredients
- 2 cans spam, cubed
- 8 cups sushi rice, cooked (or 2 cups uncooked)
- ¼ cup low-sodium soy sauce
- ¼ cup mirin rice wine
- 2 tablespoons white sugar
- 1 green onion, sliced
- Japanese mayo
- Furikake (Japanese rice seasoning)

- 2 teaspoons rice vinegar
- ¼ teaspoon sugar
- ¼ teaspoon salt
Instructions
- In a pan on medium heat, fry spam cubes until crispy, about 5-10 minutes.
- Mix together soy sauce, mirin, and sugar to make a glaze. Pour over spam and simmer until thickened, about 3 minutes.

- Broil in the oven at 500°F for 3 minutes until the top is toasty.

Notes
Use day-old rice for better texture. Adjust sweetness of glaze as desired. Add vegetables like carrots or cucumbers for extra crunch.
