I *adore* sushi. Luckily for me it is one of the easiest things to prepare at home, so I can enjoy these as often as I please!Today, I'd like to share two things with you, how I sculpt in miniature and also the recipe I use for my real-life sushi rolls.For the miniature food tutorial, please check the
youtube link below!
S U S H I --- R O L L SFor about 4 rolls :- 240 g sushi rice (I like half whole grain sushi rice) + a little bit more than 1,5 time the volume in water- nori sheets (I get local ones, as we live nearby the sea)- one sweet potato- 1/4 cucumber- one avocado- tofu (marinated over night in soy-tamarin sauce or already store bought with a "japanese" marinade)- bread crumbsCut the sweet potato in thin fries, toss them in oil, salt, pepper and cayenne pepper and bake for 20 minutes at 200°C (or until cooked).Wash the rice, bring the rice and exact amount of water (a little bit more than 1,5 the volume of the rice) to a boil with some salt.Cover with a tea towel wrapped lid, reduce heat between medium and low and cook for about 10-15 minutes. Time will depend on your stove and rice. (obviously!)Sautée the breaded tofu in a pan for about 5 minutes on each side.Once the water has been fully absorbed add some sushi vinegar mixture to taste and let cool a bit.Cut avocado, cucumber.Put out nori sheet on a sushi mat, put the rice on top, add the sweet potato, breaded tofu, avocado and cucumber. Roll. Cut. Devore.
