Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare Sushi Rice

    Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Combine the rice and water in a rice cooker and cook according to the manufacturer's instructions. Once cooked, allow to cool slightly.

  2. 2

    Season Rice

    In a small bowl, mix rice vinegar, sugar, and salt until dissolved. Fold the mixture into the cooled sushi rice and set aside.

  3. 3

    Prepare Fillings

    Slice the avocado and serrano pepper into thin strips. Cut the salmon into bite-sized pieces.

  4. 4

    Assemble Sushi

    On a bamboo sushi mat, spread a layer of sushi rice evenly. Place slices of avocado, serrano, and salmon on top of the rice. Roll tightly using the mat.

  5. 5

    Coat and Fry

    Prepare the tempura batter according to package instructions. Heat oil in a deep pan. Once hot, dip the sushi roll in the tempura batter and fry until golden brown. Drain on paper towels.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Slice the crispy sushi rolls into bite-sized pieces. Drizzle with yuzu kabayaki sauce and serve with spicy aioli on the side.
