Dynamite Roll Ingredients
Method
Preparation Directions
- 1
Prepare Sushi Rice
Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Cook the rice according to package instructions. Once cooked, mix rice vinegar, sugar, and salt in a small bowl until dissolved. Gently fold this mixture into the cooked rice and let it cool to room temperature.

Prepare Tempura Shrimp
Heat oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 350°F (175°C). Dredge shrimp in tempura batter and fry until golden brown and crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Assemble the Roll
Place a nori sheet on a bamboo sushi mat, shiny side down. Wet your hands to prevent sticking, then spread a thin layer of sushi rice over the nori, leaving a 1-inch border at the top. Place tempura shrimp in the center, drizzle with spicy mayo, and sprinkle sesame seeds.

Roll the Sushi
Using the sushi mat, carefully roll the nori away from you, applying gentle pressure to form a tight roll. Wet the edge of the nori to seal the roll. Slice the roll into bite-sized pieces using a sharp knife.
