Ingredients
Base-
- 4 Seaweed/Nori sheets or thinly sliced cucumber
- 4 cups cooked sushi rice (see note)
- 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoons sugar
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
Cooked filling ideas-
Raw filling ideas-
- 6 slices avocado
- 6 slices cucumber matchstick style
- 6 slices carrot matchstick style
- 6 slices green onion matchstick style
Serving suggestions-
- Tamari soy sauce for non gluten-free
- wasabi
- fresh pickled ginger
- Creamy Peanut Sauce
Instructions
- Mix vinegar, sugar and salt in a bowl and heat on the stove or the microwave until the sugar is dissolved.
- Add the mixture to the cooked rice and mix well.
- Make the marinated sweet potato and mushrooms by pouring the tamari over them and allowing them to marinate a bit while you prep the rest of the roll ingredients.
- Bake at 400 for 20-25 minutes until crisping on edges. You can also saute them in a pan until crisp and cooked through.
- Build by spreading 1 cup of rice onto nori sheet.
- On one end lay filling ingredients of choice in a thin line. You want between 2-4 pieces of each filling ingredient. Don’t use more than 4 or 5 fillings ingredients or it will get too big to roll.
- Tightly roll and cut. Serve with dipping sauces like Tamari (soy sauce for non gluten-free)
Notes
- Sushi rice is what gets it to stick well, you can use black rice as a second alternative too. Brown rice will not stick as well, keep that in mind.
- I made 4 rolls using the sweet potato, mushrooms, avocado, cucumber, carrot, and green onions. Serving size is 1 roll.
