This recipe has become one of our staples: it's quick, tasty, easy (once you have the ingredients on hand), and takes well to continued experimentation.
Ingredients:
approx. 1 tbsp. ghee or olive oil
2 cups cooked rice (medium-grain brown rice is good; we also use basmati)
2 cans of sardines in water or oil (approximately 4.25 oz each)
approx. 1 tsp. soy sauce
one squirt nam pla or similar fish sauce
2-4 tbsp. furikake, goma shio, or similar
2-4 large pinches of shredded nori
1/4 cup shredded pickled vegetables (standard japanese or thai pickled vegetables: daikon, carrot, et cetera — optional)
Directions:
1. Drain the sardines & break them apart with a fork. (If they're in oil, you may be able to use that for cooking — or, feed the drained liquid to your cat.)
2. Place your wok or favorite frying/sauté pan on medium heat
3. Add ghee or olive oil, wait for it to heat up
4. Add rice, sardines, soy sauce, and nam pla
5. Toss them together (still on medium heat) for 3-5 minutes, until fully heated
6. Add vegetables (optional) and furikake; mix well
7. Add shredded nori one pinch at a time, still mixing (otherwise it tends to clump up)
8. Mix it all on the stove for another couple of minutes
9. Serve & enjoy immediately
