California Rolls (Popular in the States)
- 540 ml Rice
- 1 White sesame seeds
- 6 sheets Nori seaweed
- 100 ml Rice vinegar
- 3 tbsp Sugar
- 1 dash Salt
- 1 Avocado
- 1 cucumber
- 4 stick Imitation crab sticks
- 1 Cream cheese
- 6 slice Cured ham
- 1 Mayonnaise
- 1 Sweet chilli sauce
- Cook the rice (using a little less water than the usual amount).
- Cut the ingredients into long strips of about 1 cm thick (or thinner).
- Add sugar into the rice vinegar and heat to boil.
- Add salt to adjust the taste and let cool.
- Transfer the freshly cooked rice into a Japanese wooden sushi bowl and mix with vinegar.
- Use a fan to cool off the rice as you mix and let cool.
- Once the rice has cooled, lay a tightly wrung out cloth on top.
- Place the plastic wrap, then the dried seaweed, rice and finally the sesame seeds on top of a sushi mat in that order.
- Spread out a thin layer of rice; enough to see the seaweed below (leave 1 cm of both top and bottom edges of the seaweed uncovered with rice).
- Flip the seaweed paper over and place the ingredients for the filling.
- Add a generous amount of mayonnaise and sweet chilli sauce on top and roll.
- Leaving the plastic wrap on, wet your knife with water and cut the roll into 6-8 pieces and you're done.
