Montauk Roll Ingredients

Method

Montauk Roll Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Sushi Rice

    Cook the sushi rice according to package instructions. Once cooked, let it cool slightly and season with rice vinegar, sugar, and salt. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Filling

    In a bowl, mix the spicy tuna with a little bit of sriracha and mayonnaise to enhance the flavor. Cut the avocado into thin slices.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Roll

    Lay a nori sheet on a bamboo sushi mat, shiny side down. Wet your hands and spread a thin layer of sushi rice on the nori, leaving a small border at the top. Place a line of spicy tuna, avocado slices, and tempura crunch across the center of the rice.

  4. 4

    Roll the Sushi

    Using the sushi mat, carefully roll the nori away from you, pressing firmly but gently to form a tight roll. Seal the edge with a little water.

  5. 5

    Top with Lobster and Sauces

    Slice the roll into 6-8 pieces. Arrange the pieces on a plate, top each piece with a small amount of lobster meat, drizzle with yuzu mayo and eel sauce, and sprinkle with sesame seeds.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve the Montauk roll with soy sauce, wasabi, and pickled ginger on the side.
