Temaki sushi
Delicious, easy to make hand rolls. These temaki sushi are filled with salmon & avocado. Creamy, hearty, crunchy... These hand rolls have it all!
Ingredients
- 150 gr sushi rice
- 2 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 3 nori sheets
- 75 gr salmon (raw, sushi quality)
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce + extra for dipping
- 1 carrot
- 0,5 avocado
- Japanese mayo
- sesame seeds
- poke sushi and salad sprinkle (optional)
Instructions
- Cook the sushi rice according to the instructions on the package. Drain and stir in the rice vinegar. Let the rice cool completely.
- Cut the salmon into very small cubes (about 0.5 x 0.5 cm) and marinate in the remaining rice vinegar, soy sauce and a tablespoon of olive oil. Stir well and place in a sealed container in the refrigerator until use.
- Cut the carrot into superthin strips (or use a food processor) and thinly slice the avocado. You'll probably need somewhere between half and a whole avocado.
- Halve the nori sheets so that you are left with square pieces of seaweed. Lay the nori with the shiny side down. Spread the rice over half of each nori sheet, keeping a corner of about 1.5 x 1.5 cm at the bottom left.
- Spread some Japanese mayonnaise over the rice and distribute the avocado slices, carrot strips and cubes of salmon diagonally over the rice (placing the filling from top left to bottom right).
- Now roll up the temaki by folding the empty corner inward and then folding the right side of the nori to the left over the filling. Tighten fairly tightly. The video at the bottom of the recipe explains in a minute how to put down the filling and roll the temaki.
- Sprinkle the temaki sushi with some sesame seeds and poke sprinkles as desired. Serve with soy sauce.
