Lunch boxes don’t always have to be about sandwiches! Try these easy to make sushi rolls that kids and adults alike will love. Recipe by Lucy Nunes
Ingredients
- 1 cup sushi rice
- 1/2 cup sushi seasoning
- 4 sheets nori seaweed halved
- 1 Lebanese cucumber cut into batons
- 200 g skin-off salmon fillet cut into batons
- 1 soy sauce *to serve
Method
- Cook rice following packet directions.
- Transfer rice to a large bowl. Using a large flat spatula, repeatedly slice through rice at a sharp angle to break up any lumps and separate grains, gradually pouring in sushi seasoning. Meanwhile, fan rice with other hand until almost cool.
- Place nori sheet horizontally on a sushi mat or on a piece of plastic wrap.
- Dip fingers into extra sushi seasoning to avoid rice sticking. Shake off excess. Spread ¼ cup rice over nori sheet, leaving a 1.5cm border long side further away from you.
- Place 25g salmon and a little cucumber along centre of rice. Using mat or plastic wrap, roll nori sheet to enclose filling. Press to seal roll.
- Repeat with remaining nori sheets, rice, salmon and cucumber to make another 7 rolls.
- Cut each roll into 8 small pieces. Pack sushi with a little soy sauce and any leftover cucumber sticks. Chill until ready to serve.
EQUIPMENT
- 1 bamboo sushi mat
NOTES: This recipe makes 8 rolls which can be cut into 8 small each – 64 pieces. Small bites are perfect for small kids but you can cut a roll into 6 pieces for teenagers or adults. You can buy cute little fish shaped containers for soy sauce in Asian supermarkets.
