Tuna
Sushi Roll
“This tuna sushi roll will be good as a
main on its own, but you can make a more complete meal with miso soup, chawanmushi or chicken karaage!” Jasline
Ingredients:
Sushi
rice:
1 rice cooker
cup short-grain rice (160g)
185 ml water
(3/4 cup), plus extra for rinsing
Rice Vinegar
Sauce
3 tablespoons
rice vinegar
2 tablespoons
sugar
½ teaspoon
salt
Tuna
Filling:
½ Japanese
cucumber
1 can tuna in
water
2 tablespoons
mayonnaise
1 to 1.5
teaspoon wasabi
Sushi
Rolls:
2 pieces of
nori (seaweed) for sushi
Method:
Sushi
Rice:
Place the
rice in a sieve and set the sieve in a bowl.
Add water,
then gently rub the rice between your hands.
The water
should become milky.
Discard the
water.
Repeat until
the water becomes relatively clear.
Drain the
rice for 30 minutes.
Transfer the
rice to a heatproof bowl (preferably metal as ceramic may crack over time) that
can be fitted in a pot.
Add the 185ml
of water and set aside to let the rice soak for at least 30 minutes.
Fill the pot
with a bit of water, about ½ to ¾-inch tall.
Place the
bowl of rice inside.
Cover the pot
with a lid and turn on the heat to high.
Once the
water in the pot (not in the rice) has come to a boil, reduce the heat to low
and
simmer for 15 to 20 minutes until all the water has been absorbed.
Try not to
open the pot cover while the rice is simmering.
After all the
water has been absorbed, turn off the heat and let the rice steam in residual
heat for 10 minutes.
Rice
Vinegar Sauce
Combine rice
vinegar, sugar and salt in and large small pot or small bowl.
Heat up /
microwave until the sugar has dissolved.
Tuna
Filling
Rinse and dry
the cucumber.
Cut into long
strips.
Set them
aside.
Tip the
canned tuna into a sieve and drain well.
Using a
spoon, press down onto the tuna to get rid of excess water.
Transfer the
tuna into a bowl and flake the tuna into small pieces.
Add in
mayonnaise and wasabi and stir to mix them together.
Taste and see
if you want to add in more wasabi.

to Sushi Rice Again:
You will have...
NAGGY:
It may not be
easy to roll the sushi roll tightly at the start, just keep practicing!
You can make
mini sushi rolls also, just cut the nori into half and proceed. However, make
sure you spread a thinner layer of rice otherwise you will have problem rolling
it up.
