If you like Sushi then make it home, its really easy to make and taste great.
You can also watch a video on how to make Vegetarian-sushi here.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup of sushi rice
- 1 1/4 cup of water
- 1 pinch of salt
- 1/4 cup of rice vinegar
- 1 tsp of sugar
- 2 Ripe avocados
- 4-5 sheets of nori (dried seaweed)
- To serve with -
- soy sauce
- pickled Sushi ginger
- wasabi paste
Procedure:
- Wash rice in strainer until water runs clear.
- Cook in a pot, bring water to boil, then cover and let simmer for approximately 20 minutes or until the rice has absorbed the water and sticks together. (else cook in rice cooker)
- Allow rice to cool for around 15-20 minutes and add rice vinegar, salt and sugar.
- Gently fold rice until mixed well.
- Allow the rice to cool to room temperature. (max you can cool it for an hour, easier to handle)
- Once the rice is ready to go, you can place your Nori on a bamboo mat or aluminum foil.
- Make sure the rough side of the Nori is facing up.
- Before handling the rice, pour a little water and rice vinegar into a small bowl or measuring cup.
- Dip your fingers in this mixture and it will keep the rice from from sticking to your fingers.
- Roll the Vegetarian Sushi
- Place your thumbs underneath the sushi mat and fold the seaweed over.
- Use your fingers to tuck the edge of the seaweed firmly under the ingredients.
- Now, continue rolling until all of the seaweed is wound around the sushi.
- Cut the Sushi Rolls
- To cut the sushi rolls, you will need a sharp knife.
- Wet the blade of the knife so that it does not stick to the rice in the roll.
- Cut the sushi roll into pieces about three quarters to one inch wide.
- Between cuts, turn the roll one quarter turn so that it will remain round and will not get squished as you are cutting.
- Serve the sushi with soy sauce and enjoy.
