4 sheets dried seaweed (nori)
4 cups sushi rice (recipe below)
1 avocado
1/2 lb. imitation crab
1 tbsp mayonnaise
1/2 tsp salt
2 tsps sesame seeds
How to Cook:
Peel an avocado and cut it into strips or mash it.
Put imitation crab in a bowl and mix with salt and mayonnaise.
Cover a bamboo mat with plastic wrap.
Put a sheet of dried seaweed on top of the mat.
Spread sushi rice on top of the seaweed and press firmly.
Sprinkle sesame seeds over the sushi rice.
Turn the sushi layer over so that the seaweed is on top.
Place avocado and crab lengthwise on the seaweed.
Roll the bamboo mat forward, pressing the ingredients inside the cylinder-shaped sushi.
Press firmly the bamboo mat with hands, then remove the rolled sushi.
Cut the sushi roll into bite-sized pieces
Sushi Rice:
INGREDIENTS:
3 cups Japanese-style rice
3 1/4 cups water
1/3 cup rice wine vinegar
3 tbsp sugar
1 tsp salt
PREPARATION:
After washing the rice well, cook it by pan or rice cooker. See how to cook Japanese rice. Prepare sushi vinegar (sushi-zu) by mixing rice vinegar, sugar, and salt in a small pan.
Variations:
California Rolls with Roe: Instead of sesame seeds, use tamago ( flying fish roe) and spread a layer on top of rice
Use Cucumber instead of or in addition to avocado.
use imitation crab sticks and dont mix with mayo and salt- just leave whole and place on top of rice.
Use fresh lump crab instead of the imitation kind
DONT FORGET THE WASABI AND GINGER!!!!
