Rolled sushi is a classic and internationally popular dish. You can make your own sushi with different fillings of your choice, such as raw or cooked veggies, pickles, and many more. To enjoy your sushi more, serve with green tea or wasabi. Ingredients
- ½ cucumber
- 1 sheet Mitoku Sushi Nori
- 280g sushi rice
- 20g Mitoku Organic Sushi Ginger, finely sliced
- 20g Mitoku Sushi Daikon, finely sliced
- 1 Mitoku Sushi Mat
- Some Mitoku Shoyu or Tamari Soy sauce
- Some Mitoku Organic Wasabi
Preparation Method
- Cut the cucumber portion lengthways into eighths. Finely slice into thin strips.
- Cut the nori sheet in half lengthways and place on a sushi mat. Spread 70g rice over the sheet, leaving a gap of 1cm on the side opposite you. (Tip: to make a neat roll, spread the rice more thinly where the filling is to go). Put the Sushi Ginger and cucumber at the centre.
- Place your thumbs at the back of the mat and lift it whilst supporting the filling with your fingers. Roll the rice away from you and press down lightly.
- Roll the sushi so that the edge of the nori sheet lies under the rolled sushi.
- Shape the sushi by pressing down on each end of the roll. Cut it into 6 pieces. Repeat the process for the other filling, Sushi Daikon.
- Serve with soy sauce and wasabi.
