Ingredients for Special Roll
Method
Directions for Special Roll
Prepare Sushi Rice
Cook sushi rice according to package instructions. Once cooked, let it cool to room temperature.
Prepare Fillings
Slice yellowtail, avocado, and prepare crab meat and cream cheese for easy rolling.
Assemble the Roll
On a bamboo sushi mat, place one nori sheet shiny side down. Wet your hands and spread a thin layer of sushi rice over the nori, leaving about an inch at the top edge. Place yellowtail, cream cheese, crab, and avocado along the bottom edge of the rice. Roll tightly using the mat to help form the roll.
Fry the Roll
Carefully dip the assembled roll in the tempura batter and then gently place it in the hot oil. Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels.
Serve
Slice the fried roll into bite-sized pieces. Drizzle with mayonnaise and Nakato hot sauce before serving.
