Introduction

Easy, delicious and HEALTHY sushi!!! Easy, delicious and HEALTHY sushi!!!
Number of Servings: 1

Ingredients

    Clean, dry grocery bag
    1/4 cup freshly boiled rice (must be still hot)
    1 sheet Nori, untoasted
    1/8 avocado, sliced into fingers
    2 baby carrots, quartered lengthwise
    1 slice of cucumber (about as big around as pinkie finger and as long as sheet of Nori)
    6 medium frozen shrimp, cooked
    1 tbsp low sodium soy sauce

Directions

Turn a burner on high and wave the Nori sheet over it several times to lightly toast it. This will help to bring out the flavor! Set aside on a flat, dry surface.
Cut all vegatables into thin strips and set aside - be sure to cover avocado until right before use as they will turn brown if exposed to air.
Quarter baby carrots lengthwise into 'matchsticks.'
Defost frozen, pre-cooked, deveined and peeled shrimp; set aside.
Place Nori on clean, dry grocery bag and spread hot rice over half the sheet.
Arrange shrimp and vegetables in a narrow row lengthwise. (DO NOT OVERSTUFF!! This will make it very hard to roll.) With your hands under the bag, begin to roll the sushi, starting at the end with the rice and fillings.
Try to keep it as tight as possible without ripping the sheet.
The steam/heat from the rice will make the Nori stick to itself.
Set roll aside to cool (I put mine in the fridge for a couple of minutes).
If desired, slice roll into pieces, or you can eat it like a soft taco.
Try making it with crab instead of shrimp for a California roll!!
Dip into soy sauce before eating.

    Purchase a little rice wine vinegar. When your rice is fully cooked, sprinkle it with the vinegar. Always remember to rinse rice first until water runs clear b4 cooking for the ultimate, fluffy, soft, tender rice. (Brown too.) Japanese short grain rice best for sushi. - 3/28/17

    You can also buy a bamboo roller sheet from an ethnic store or even the ethnic section of a grocery store. It is inexpensive and makes it so easy! - 8/23/11
