Here we have a picture (finally!) of our home made sushi. Tonight small sprog and I made some inari sushi and some salmon nigri to top up what was left from last nights batch.
The inari pockets are presented open end up as I prefer them this way instead of the traditional open side down.
Small sprog and I decided to pack a sushi bento for my Mum tonight as a treat. She and I are hoping to lose some weight and I thought if I pack her a bento box, it would help her look at lunch in a more fun way, rather than thinking that she’s restricting her food intake, oh and I also gave her a pair of chopsticks to eat her lunch with hee hee!
We didn’t really have any problems making our sushi, although I will admit the inside out roll was hard to do. It’s very sticky to work with, I don’t know that I would try these again. So we have inari pockets, smoked salmon maki, smoked salmon nigri, teriyaki tuna rolls. Mum also had some cuccumber and red pepper maki rolls as did small sprog.
For the teriyaki tuna rolls I used one small can of tuna which I made sure was well flaked. Mix into this one teaspoon (yes you read that correctly!) of mayonnaise and one teaspoon of teriyaki sauce. Mix the tuna and sauce well until combined then use to fill your sushi as you would normally do.
Enjoy Tuesday everyone!
