Vegan "Tuna" Onigiri

Step 1

Rinse the rice and add it to a pot along with water and salt. Bring to a boil and cook for 10 minutes. Then, remove from the heat and allow the rice to steam covered for 15 minutes. Transfer the rice onto a tray and fluff it with a spoon to speed up the cooling time.

Step 2

Meanwhile, blitz the chickpeas into a paste. Then, mix them with soy sauce, rice vinegar, garlic powder, salt, and one nori sheet torn into flakes.

Step 3

Get a handful of rice and place the filling and avocado chunks in the center. Wrap the rice around the filling to form a rice ball and then shape it into a triangle.

Step 4

Wrap the base of the onigiri with a nori sheet cut into rectangles. Then, coat the sides of the onigiri with sesame seeds.
