The perfect crispy entree!
Ingredients
- 300g Sushi Rice
- 360ml Water
- 2 Tablespoons Rice Vinegar
- 2 Teaspoon Sugar
- Pinch of Salt
- 300g Chicken
- 3 Tablespoons Sesame Seeds
- 1/2 Cup Crushed Peanuts
- 1 Bunch Coriander
Sauce
- 1/2 Cup Peanut Butter
- 1/3 Cup Soy Sauce
- 2 Tablespoon Sesame Oil
- 2 Tablespoon Rice Vinegar
- 2 Tablespoons Sugar, Honey or Maple Syrup
- 1/4 Cup Water or more for runny consistency
Method
- Cook rice in a rice cooker or pot. If cooking in a pot, simmer for 15-20 minutes until rice has entirely absorbed water. Leave covered to steam for another 5-minutes while cooking chicken.
- Cut chicken into small bite sized pieces and cook in a pan with oil. Once cooked, mix 80% of sauce with chicken and set aside.
- To make balls, take a large spoonful of rice in hand and place 1-2 pieces of chicken inside rice, covering fully like a rice ball. Then dip the rice ball in a bowl of sesame seeds until completely covered. Repeat this step until all rice and chicken has been used up.
- Heat pan on medium heat with Sesame oil roughly 1cm deep in pan. Place rice balls in oil once hot and fry until light brown and crispy all over.
- Serve in a bowl and cover with crushed peanuts, chopped Coriander and the remainder of sauce.
