Chili Shrimp Roll Ingredients

Method

Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare Sushi Rice

    Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Cook according to package instructions. Once cooked, let it cool for a few minutes and season with salt.

  2. 2

    Prepare Tempura Filling

    In a bowl, mix the tempura batter mix with water until smooth. Cut the cream cheese into strips and wrap each strip with a krab stick. Dip the wrapped krab and cream cheese into the tempura batter.

  3. 3

    Fry Tempura

    In a deep pan, heat oil over medium heat. Fry the tempura-wrapped krab and cream cheese until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Rolls

    Lay a nori sheet on a bamboo sushi mat, spread a thin layer of sushi rice over the nori, leaving a small border at the top. Place the fried tempura filling in the center. Add cooked shrimp on top of the tempura.

  5. 5

    Roll and Slice

    Using the sushi mat, carefully roll the nori tightly away from you, pressing gently to form a roll. Slice the roll into bite-sized pieces.

  6. 6

    Prepare Sauce

    In a small bowl, mix spicy chili sauce, mayonnaise, and Sriracha sauce. Drizzle over the sliced rolls.

  7. 7

    Garnish and Serve

    Sprinkle sliced green onions and sesame seeds over the rolls. Serve immediately.
