READY THE RICE
Place the rice in a pot with 200ml [400ml]|#7DA0D7 of salted water. Cover with a lid and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until the water has been absorbed, 8-10 minutes. Remove from the heat, add the spicy soy mix (to taste), and set aside to steam, 8-10 minutes. Fluff with a fork and cover.
PICKLED Carrot
Boil the kettle. In a bowl, combine the vinegar, 5ml [10ml]|#7DA0D7 of sweetener, and seasoning. Toss through the Carrot and set aside to pickle.
MMMEATBALLS
Place the mince in a bowl, add the spring onion whites, the NOMU rub, seasoning and a drizzle of oil. Combine and roll into 4-5 meatballs per portion. Place a pan over medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the meatballs until browned and cooked through, 8-10 minutes, shifting as they colour. Season and remove from the pan.
POPS OF COLOUR
Return the pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the Corn until lightly charred, 3-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside. Submerge the edamame beans in salted boiling water until plumped up, 3-4 minutes. Drain and set aside.
POKE BOWL
Bowl up the rice, and top with the meatballs, the pickled carrots, the Corn, and the edamame beans. Finish with dollops of the Kewpie mayo and sprinkle over the pickled ginger. Enjoy!
