Ingredients for Shrimp Tempura Roll
Method
Directions for Preparing Shrimp Tempura Roll
Prepare the Sushi Rice
Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Cook the rice according to package instructions. Once cooked, transfer to a bowl, and mix with rice vinegar, sugar, and salt. Allow to cool.
Make the Tempura Batter
In a mixing bowl, combine the tempura batter mix with cold water and stir gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
Fry the Shrimp
Heat vegetable oil in a deep pan to 350°F (175°C). Dip shrimp into the tempura batter, then carefully place them in the hot oil. Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels.
Assemble the Roll
Place a nori sheet on a bamboo sushi mat. Wet your hands and spread a thin layer of sushi rice over the nori, leaving a small border at the top. Place 3 fried shrimp in a line along the bottom of the rice, then roll tightly using the mat. Moisten the edge of the nori to seal.
Slice and Serve
Using a sharp knife, slice the roll into 6-8 pieces. Serve with soy sauce, wasabi, and pickled ginger on the side.
