Chili Shrimp Roll Ingredients

Preparation

Instructions

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. 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. 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. 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. 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. Prepare Sauce

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

7. Garnish and Serve

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