Garlic Yaki Onigiri is a variation of Yaki Onigiri, Japanese rice balls that are grilled to crisp on the outside. In this recipe, we simply pan-fried the rice balls with oil infused with garlic. Seasoning is quite simple, only with soy sauce, but Katsuobushi bonito flakes mixed in the rice adds so much umami to this simple dish. The flavor combination of fried garlic and rice can’t go wrong, and it’s simply irresistible. You might want to double or triple the recipe as you may need more than a couple once you start eating these rice balls!
