Hand Roll Ingredients

Method

Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Sushi Rice

    Rinse 1 cup of sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Cook the rice according to package instructions. Once cooked, mix in 1 tablespoon of rice vinegar and 1 teaspoon of salt. Let it cool.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Spicy Salmon Filling

    In a bowl, combine the sushi-grade salmon, chili powder, and sesame oil. Mix well and set aside.

  3. 3

    Slice the Cucumber

    Julienne the cucumber into thin strips.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Hand Roll

    Lay a nori sheet on a clean surface. Spread a thin layer of sushi rice on the lower half of the nori. Add a line of the spicy salmon filling and a few cucumber strips. Sprinkle tempura flakes on top.

  5. 5

    Roll the Hand Roll

    Starting from the bottom, roll the nori tightly around the filling. Use your fingers to shape it into a cone as you roll. Repeat with the second nori sheet.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Cut the hand rolls in half if desired and serve immediately with soy sauce or wasabi.
