Instructions for Making Shrimp Tempura Roll
- 1
Prepare the Tempura Shrimp
In a mixing bowl, combine the tempura batter mix with ice water until just mixed. Heat vegetable oil in a deep pan over medium-high heat. Dip the shrimp into the batter and carefully place them in the hot oil. Fry until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Prepare the Sushi Rice
Make sure your sushi rice is cooked and seasoned according to your preference. Allow it to cool slightly before assembling the roll.

Assemble the Roll
On a bamboo sushi mat, lay a sheet of nori shiny side down. With wet hands, spread a thin layer of sushi rice over the nori, leaving a small border at the top. Place a few slices of avocado, cucumber, and the tempura shrimp in the center of the rice-covered nori.

Roll the Sushi
Using the bamboo mat, carefully roll the sushi away from you, pressing gently to form a tight roll. Seal the edge of the nori with a little water.

Slice and Serve
Using a sharp knife, slice the roll into bite-sized pieces. Serve with soy sauce, wasabi, and pickled ginger.
