Equipment

  • Medium saucepan or rice cooker
  • Small cast iron skillet
  • Sushi press

Ingredients
 

  • 3 cups Rice, cooked
  • 1 can Spam
  • 1/4 cup Teriyaki sauce
  • 1 Green onion
  • 1 package Seaweed sheets

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the rice in a rice cooker or on the stovetop. One cup of uncooked rice will yield 3 cups of cooked rice.
  • Slice the spam into 10 pieces.
  • Pour the teriyaki sauce into a shallow bowl.
  • Roughly chop the green onions and place them into the bowl.
  • Place the slices of spam into the teriyaki sauce.
  • Using the spam can as a guide, cut the seaweed sheets so that they are the same length as the spam can.
  • Over medium heat, sear the spam on both sides.
  • Place one cut sheet of seaweed on a cutting board.
  • Place the sushi press in the middle of the seaweed.
  • Fill the sushi press with rice. Press the rice down to make it tightly pressed.
  • Remove the sushi press and place a piece of hot spam on top of the rice.
  • Wrap the seaweed around the rice and spam. To seal the edges, apply a small amount of water to the seaweed and press down to seal.
  • Serve immediately.
  • This can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
