Dragon Roll Ingredients
Method
Preparation Instructions
Prepare the Sushi Rice
Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Cook the rice according to the package instructions, and let it cool. Once cooled, mix in a little rice vinegar, sugar, and salt to taste.
Assemble the Roll
Place a sheet of nori on a bamboo sushi mat, shiny side down. Wet your hands and spread a thin layer of sushi rice over the nori, leaving a small border at the top. Layer the grilled eel, cucumber, and tempura shrimp on the rice.
Roll it Up
Using the bamboo mat, carefully roll the sushi away from you, pressing gently but firmly to ensure it stays together. Seal the edge with a little water.
Slice and Garnish
Using a sharp knife, slice the roll into 6-8 pieces. Arrange on a plate and top with avocado slices. Drizzle with eel sauce and spicy mayonnaise, then sprinkle with sesame seeds.
Serve
Serve with wasabi and pickled ginger on the side.
