Method

Prepare Sushi Rice

  1. 1

    Cook the Rice

    Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Cook the rice according to package instructions.

  2. 2

    Season the Rice

    While the rice is still warm, mix together rice vinegar, sugar, and salt in a small bowl until dissolved. Gently fold this mixture into the cooked rice. Set aside to cool.

Prepare Filling

  1. 3

    Prepare Shrimp

    In a bowl, season shrimp with salt and black pepper. Dredge shrimp in flour, dip in beaten egg, and coat with panko breadcrumbs.

  2. 4

    Deep Fry Shrimp

    Heat vegetable oil in a deep saucepan over medium-high heat. Fry the shrimp until golden brown and cooked through, about 3-4 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Assemble the Roll

  1. 5

    Lay Out Ingredients

    On a bamboo sushi mat, spread a layer of sushi rice evenly, leaving a small border at the top.

  2. 6

    Add Filling

    Place the fried shrimp, crab meat, and spicy tuna mix in a line across the center of the rice.

  3. 7

    Roll the Sushi

    Using the mat, roll the sushi tightly from the bottom to the top, applying gentle pressure to form a firm roll.

  4. 8

    Top the Roll

    Place the unagi, hamachi, and avocado slices on top of the rolled sushi. Drizzle with unagi sauce and mayonnaise. Sprinkle masago over the top.

  5. 9

    Slice the Roll

    Using a sharp knife, slice the roll into 8 equal pieces. Wipe the knife with a damp cloth between cuts for clean edges.
