Halloween Sushi
Ingredients
- 150 grams sushi rice
- 300 ml water
- 2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
- 50 grams tuna, drained
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon sriracha
- 4 snack cucumber
- 2 sheets nori, seaweed
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- sea salt, to taste
Instructions
- Wash the rice in a small pot until the water runs clear.
- Top the drained rice with water and cook according to the label instructions.
- When cooked, add the rice vinegar and fluff the rice with a fork.
- Allow to cool.
- Place a nori sheet on a flat surface. Top the entire sheet with rice, leaving a bit free at the top and bottom (use a bowl of water for your fingers to limit sticking).
- Mix the tuna with three tablespoons of cooled, cooked rice, mayo, and a sprinkle of sea salt.
- Arrange half of the tuna rice on the bottom section of the nori sheet.
- Drizzle the tuna mixture with sriracha.
- Peel, top and tail the snack cucumbers.
- Arrange two cucumbers in a row on top of the tuna mixture.
- Roll the sushi and wrap it together tightly.
- Slice the sushi roll in half, and then cut the roll into equal pieces (I got 9).
- Repeat with another nori sheet.
- Top the cucumber ‘eyes’ with nori pupils (which you can cut out of a small piece of nori) and a dollop of mayo for the highlight in the eye.
- Serve.
