1 cup = 250ml<\/p>\n
3 cups sushi rice
\n1 packet nori sheets, or approximately 10 nori sheets
\n1 425gm tin tuna, drained (I prefer tuna in olive oil)
\n1\/4 cup whole egg mayonaise
\n1 avocado
\n2 tbsp rice wine vinegar (can substitute with ordinary vinegar)
\n1tsp salt
\n1 1\/2 tbsp castor sugar<\/p>\n
Method:<\/strong><\/p>\n Rinse rice in a sieve, till the water runs clear. \u00c2\u00a0Cook rice according to your favourite method. \u00c2\u00a0(I use a rice cooker). \u00c2\u00a0While rice is cooking, place drained tuna and mayonaise in a food processor and blend until just combined. \u00c2\u00a0Place it aside. \u00c2\u00a0Once rice is cooked, stir in the vinegar, sugar & salt. \u00c2\u00a0Spread the rice on a large plate to a thickness of about 2.5 cm (1″). \u00c2\u00a0Put in fridge for about 10-15 mins to cool the rice down. \u00c2\u00a0Remove rice from fridge and cut it into strips about 3cm (1.5″) wide (this is what makes rolling them later on so much easier).<\/p>\n The rice cut into strips makes it easier when rolling<\/p><\/div>\n Place a nori sheet on a clean surface and cut off a strip of the rice to fit the width of the nori sheet. \u00c2\u00a0Place the rice about a quarter of the way along the nori sheet.<\/p>\n Spread a layer of tuna on top of the rice and add strips of avocado. \u00c2\u00a0 Roll the first quarter of the nori sheet around the rice and press gently into place. \u00c2\u00a0Keep rolling until the nori sheet is totally wrapped around the rice and filling.<\/p>\n I promise it tastes better than it looks<\/p><\/div>\n I ran out of avocado before I took the photos<\/p><\/div>\n Repeat until you have used up all the rice. \u00c2\u00a0Cut the rolls into your preferred size before serving. \u00c2\u00a0I make a dip of equal amounts of lemon juice and tamari sauce (or soya sauce) and add few drops of sesame oil and garnish of coriander (cilantro).<\/p>\n For the children, I cut the sushi into bite size pieces<\/p><\/div>\n Enjoy! \u00c2\u00a0Jacinta<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" We all love sushi and to buy the quantity we eat in a sitting is astronomical (Scarlett just about eats her body weight in sushi!), hence I make it as opposed to buying it (although it is what my kids … Continue reading ![\"\"](\"http:\/\/www.embracingitall.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/05\/sushi.jpg\" "\\"sushi\\"")
