My mom bought a rice cooker a few months back and I made onigiri for my family. I bought some sushi rice and followed the instructions on the bag which were pretty simple. Then I just made up a filling since you can put just about anything into them. I cut steak into small pieces and sauted it with green bell peppers, onions, and bean sprouts which I had also cut up. then when I made the the rice balls I put about a spoonful of the mixture into them. It was really great!

ahahaha! Sphinx01 likes balls . . .

alot of people make them differently I saw a lady make rice balls by dipping it the rice in egg yokes then putting it together roll it around in bread crumns and wala she was done. They taste pretty good

The rice takes a while to make, but rice balls are easy to make.
Unless your trying to do something unusual, like fry them.

It`s also pretty normal to wrap a sheet of nori around the outside.

Now I really wanna make some... *begins to look on the internet for exact recipes and how to dos*

I'm learning to make these too! I'm going to Borders tomorrow to get a Japanese Cook Book. I have Rice, Salt, Udon Noodles, and Ramen, but I need to get more! And make BENTOS! I love Japanese food, and I need to learn to cook, because in my dream relationship I cook for my dream girl!
