Katsu Spam Musubi

 My childhood favorite all grown up!  If you love spam musubi you are going to have your mind blown by this treat! Crispy on the outside while being savory, sticky, and meaty on the inside. This one is sure to be a favorite among both the adults and keiki!


Serves 6-8



Ingredients

Spam Musubis
1 can SPAM
At least 4 cups cooked white rice
Nori Sheets cut in half

Katsu Coating
2 eggs
1/2 cup flour
3/4 cup panko bread crumbs
1/2 cup oil for frying

Toppings
Sushi sauce, unagi sauce or thick teriyaki sauce
Furikake

Directions

1. After your white sticky rice is done cooking slice the spam into 12 pieces and fry until golden brown.
2. Assemble your spam musubis using a spam musubi maker. Search on Youtube if unfamiliar with spam musubi making steps.
3. Get out a bowl and crack and mix the eggs into it.
4. Get 2 small plates and pour flour into 1 and panko into the other.
5. Heat up the oil in a pan on medium high.
6. Dip a spam musubi into the flour then egg, then last panko and place into hot oil. Fry about 1 minute per side or until golden brown. Use tongs to help fry the 2 ends as well!
7. Repeat for the rest of your spam musubi.
8. Cool for a few minutes then slice into sushi sized pieces. 
9. Garnish with teriyaki/sushi sauce and furikake and enjoy while crispy and hot!
