Ingredients
For the rice balls:
1 cup short grain brown rice, (or brown sushi rice) prepared according to package directions and cool enough to handle comfortably
1 tablespoon black sesame seeds
1 tablespoon white sesame seeds
2 tablespoons minced, toasted seaweed (I used Annie Chun's sesame seaweed snacks)
1 ounce toasted almonds, finely chopped
3 tablespoons minced chives, divided
For the spicy mayonnaise:
1 tablespoon mayonnaise (maybe your own)
1 teaspoon sriracha hot chili sauce
1 dash each soy sauce and lemon juice
Some filling ingredient options:
small cubes of avocado tossed with a little lemon juice (to keep them from turning brown)
tiny cubes of sashimi grade ahi tuna or salmon
pickled ginger
spicy mayonnaise
For dipping (optional):
2 parts soy sauce to 1 part sesame oil
soy sauce + wasabi paste to taste
