Sushi Rolls using crab or scallops?
I've started trying to make sushi at home since I LOVE to eat it but can't always afford to eat at sushi restaurants in town. I was wondering if anyone had any good sushi recipies using crab or scallops...really anything besides fish. I'm willing to try anything!
Answers:
Make sushi rolls using whatever you want! I make a jerk chicken roll with pineapple that's killer! Usually, I think the best bet is a spicy meat with a mild or tart fruit or vegetable. These are the ingredients I tend to use for filling:
Red, orange, yellow, or green bell peppers, thin stips.
Cucumber
Carrots
Beets
Cabbage
Avocado.
Kiwi
Pineapple
Mango
papaya
For meats:
shrimp, steamed or deep fried
Crab meat or substitute
grilled tuna, salmon, or whitefish like Ahi or Halibut
Grilled chicken
I made spicy curried chicken rolls once with coconut milk and raisins, no seaweed wrap. They were killer!
Best of luck!
You can do the California roll, it has avocado and crab wrapped in seaweed, then your sticky rice..
i have a philipino friend who makes them out of crab. seaweed wrap- put sticky sushi rice on it, (mix crab with a little mayo salt and pepper) lay crab in the middle, piece of sliced cucumber and avacado. wrap it up with sushi mat. ummmmmm good!
