Instructions

• Preheat the broiler (grill) to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with baking paper.
• Place the cooked and cooled sushi rice into a bowl and drizzle over the rice vinegar, stirring to combine. Form the seasoned rice into 8 even sized balls.
• Wrap each rice ball with 2 rashers of bacon and place onto the baking sheet. Place the baking sheet under the broiler and broil for about 20 to 25 minutes until lightly browned.
• In the meantime, place all the ingredients for the teriyaki sauce into a small pot over a medium/high heat. Boil the sauce until it has reduced by half.
• Take the rice balls out of the oven and brush generously with the teriyaki sauce. Do this a further 3 or more times during the cook, to allow the bacon and rice to absorb all the sauce.
• Put the rice balls back in the broiler and cook for another five minutes for the sauce to caramelize.
• To serve, sprinkle over the toasted sesame seeds and green onions. Great as a snack.
