Spam Rice Balls (jumuk Bab) Recipe

Ingredients

How to make it

  • Finely dice the veggies, set aside. Sauteing the diced vegetables is optional for those wanting a softer texture to the rice balls.
  • Heat a non-stick fry pan or skillet over medium heat and add a small amount of oil. After cutting Spam into thin pieces, cook them until browned, set aside on paper-towel lined tray.
  • Make sure the cooked rice is set to cool at least several minutes before combining them in a mixing bowl. Once cooled, add the diced veggies, crushed seaweed and sesame oil to the mix and combine thoroughly. The rice can get really sticky, so running your fingers through water will help prevent sticking.
  • To make the rice pieces, scoop up some rice and pack into the Spam container until filled tightly. Place a Spam piece on top of the rice and then set the container down backwards to remove the compressed rice. With a thin strip of seaweed, wrap it around the spam rice piece until secure. If you have a hard time getting the rice out of the container, rubbing some olive oil inside the can before adding the rice will help.
  • *Here are some other ingredients that suit jumukbab just as well: sautéed kimchi, ground pork, paprika, corn, peas, any type of bean varieties, and Japanese rice flavoring packets. Go crazy and mix n match ingredients to your liking!
