Smoked Salmon Avocado Sushi Food

SMOKED SALMON & AVOCADO SUSHI

Steps:

• Put the rice in a small pan with 600ml water. Bring to the boil and cook for 10 mins until the water is absorbed and the rice is tender. Stir through the vinegar and sugar, cover and cool.
• Skin, stone and slice the avocado. Put in a bowl and squeeze over the lemon juice, turning the avocado to ensure the pieces are covered.
• Divide the rice between the nori sheets and spread it out evenly, leaving a 1cm border at the top and bottom. Lay the salmon over the rice, followed by the chives and finally position the avocado across the centre.
• Fold the bottom edge of the seaweed over the filling, then roll it up firmly. Dampen the top border with a little water to help it seal the roll. Repeat to make 4 rolls. At this stage, the rolls can be wrapped individually in cling film and chilled until ready to serve.
• Using a serrated knife, cut each roll into 8 rounds. Serve with sweet soy sauce for dipping.

SMOKED SALMON-AVOCADO SUSHI SALAD

Steps:

• In 2-quart saucepan, heat 1 1/4 cups water and the rice to boiling. Reduce heat to low; cover and simmer 10 to 15 minutes or until tender. Transfer to large bowl, tossing rice with chopsticks or 2 forks to cool slightly. Gradually add 1/4 cup vinegar to rice, tossing constantly. Cover bowl with damp towel; cool rice to room temperature.
• In small bowl, mix dressing ingredients with wire whisk.
• Dip hands into cold water; divide rice into 4 equal portions. Form each into oval-shaped patty about 3/4 inch thick. Roll edges in sesame seed. Place each patty on serving plate. Sprinkle top of each rice patty with 1 to 2 teaspoons dressing. Arrange 4 avocado slices over each. Top each with 1/4 of the sliced salmon and 1 teaspoon ginger slices. Serve immediately.

SMOKED SALMON SUSHI ROLL

Steps:

• Soak rice for 4 hours. Drain rice and cook in a rice cooker with 2 cups of water. Rice must be slightly dry as vinegar will be added later.
• Immediately after rice is cooked, mix in 6 tablespoons rice vinegar to the hot rice. Spread rice on a plate until completely cool.
• Place 1 sheet of seaweed on bamboo mat, press a thin layer of cool rice on the seaweed. Leave at least 1/2 inch top and bottom edge of the seaweed uncovered. This is for easier sealing later. Dot some wasabi on the rice. Arrange cucumber, avocado and smoked salmon to the rice. Position them about 1 inch away from the bottom edge of the seaweed.
• Slightly wet the top edge of the seaweed. Roll from bottom to the top edge with the help of the bamboo mat tightly. Cut roll into 8 equal pieces and serve. Repeat for other rolls.

SPICY CRUNCHY SALMON ROLL WITH AVOCADO

Steps:

• Rinse rice in a strainer until the water runs clear. Drain.
• Combine rice and 1 1/2 cups water in a saucepan over medium-high heat; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 20 minutes.
• While the rice is cooking, combine vinegar, sugar, and salt in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook and stir until sugar dissolves. Remove from the heat and let cool.
• When the rice is finished cooking, remove from the heat and stir in the vinegar mixture. Allow rice to cool completely, about 30 minutes.
• Place nori sheets on a work surface. Divide rice evenly between the sheets, then use a rice paddle to spread and flatten it out to the edges. Flip sheets so rice is facing down.
• Arrange avocado slices in a strip down the middle of each sheet. Layer with 1 1/2 cream cheese strips, 1 tablespoon panko, and 1 cucumber strip. Roll each sheet carefully, but tightly, around the fillings.
• Place thin layers of salmon on top of the rolls, then add masago and drizzle with hoisin and Sriracha mayonnaise. Sprinkle black and white sesame seeds over top. Slice each roll into 8 pieces.
