1
Mix the rice and the ingredients to make sushi rice.
2
I make light tasting sushi rice since my family doesn't like vinegar rice very much.
3
Saute all the ingredients to make the chicken soboro (crumbled chicken).
4
I recommend separating the ground chicken into a fine crumble.
5
Make scrambled eggs with the ingredients.
6
You can season it with soy sauce or salt instead of shiro dashi if you prefer.
7
Make fine just like the chicken soboro.
8
Mix the sushi rice with wasabi, sesame seeds, scrambled eggs, and the chicken soboro.
9
I used roughly grated wasabi this time.
10
Using wasabizuke (wasabi pickled vegetables) is a good idea too.
11
Fill the inari pouch with the rice mixture and they're ready.
