"Max's hoisin and vegetable sushi roll" is a delectable fusion dish that combines the flavors of Vietnamese and Japanese cuisine. The hoisin sauce, a thick, sweet, and savory sauce made from fermented soybeans, adds a unique and tangy flavor to the sushi roll. The vegetables, such as carrots, cucumbers, and bell peppers, provide a crunchy texture and a burst of freshness. This recipe is perfect for those who are looking for a vegetarian or vegan sushi option that is both flavorful and satisfying.

Steps:
- Place the rice in a coarse-mesh sieve and rinse with cold running water until water runs clear. Shake out excess water.
- In a large saucepan, combine rice and water; heat to boiling over high heat. Reduce heat to low; cover and simmer for 40 minutes or until rice is tender and water is absorbed. Remove from heat; let stand, covered, for 10 minutes. Transfer rice to a bowl and sprinkle with rice vinegar; toss and let cool.
- Meanwhile, peel the carrot and cut into matchsticks. Cut the unpeeled cucumber lengthwise in half; discard seeds. Then cut cucumber into matchsticks. Slice peppers into matchsticks. Cut chives to match the length of the vegetables. All vegetables should be about the same length and thickness. Cut each nori sheet in half crosswise.
- To prepare sushi, hold the nori in one hand, shiny side down. Dip your free hand in a small bowl of water to prevent sticking. Using your wet hand, shape 1/4 cup rice into a ball and place on the left side of nori sheet. Spread the rice to a 1/4-inch thickness, leaving about a 1-inch border of nori on the sides. With your finger, make a crosswise "well" in the center of rice where vegetables will go.
- Place 1-2 sticks of each vegetable (carrot, cucumber, peppers, and chives) in the well and tightly press vegetables together. (Let kids pick combos of their favorites, but making colorful sushi is the goal!)
- To roll sushi, start with bottom left edge of the nori and bring it up on a diagonal to the center of the rice and vegetable. Start rolling the sushi to the right to create a cone shape, using your free hand to tuck it all together tightly. With your fingertip, place a drop of water on the outside bottom corner of the nori to hold the sushi together.
- Repeat steps 4-6 with remaining ingredients.
- Place sushi rolls on a platter and serve with low-sodium soy sauce for dipping, if you like.
MAX'S HOISIN AND VEGETABLE SUSHI ROLL
A fun recipe to make with the kids. Before making it, go shopping at an international market to find the ingredients. Even though all of the ingredients for this recipe can be found at your local supermarket it is fun to wander the aisles of the international markets and see things you normally wouldn't, especially if you find a really authentic market. My sons love investigating everything; from whole frozen rabbits (head and feet included) to pig ears, live octopi and many more culinary odities.

Steps:
- Sprinkle the rice with vinegar and mix lightly.
- Dip your fingers in water to keep the rice from sticking to your fingers as you spread it onto the nori.
- Spread enough rice thinly and evenly onto nori to cover completely while leaving about 1 inch of nori uncovered at one end (finishing end). Sprinkle rice with sesame seeds.
- Spread 1/2" wide line of hoisin sauce on top of the rice along the width of the rice and nori at the beginning end.
- Add julienned carrots, cucumbers, water chestnuts and avacodos on top of the hoisin sauce, in a row, end to end the width of the nori sheet.
- Dip fingers in water and wet the last 1 inch of the finishing end of the nori so it will seal - like the glue on an envelope.
- Make a tight "jelly roll" starting at the begining end. Let the roll sit for 5 - 10 minutes and then slice into 8 - 10 even sections. Letting it sit for a few minutes will make the wrapper easier to cut. Use a serrated bread knife to cut the roll.
- Accompany with soy sauce, pickled ginger and wasabe.

Steps:
- Cook the sushi rice according to the package instructions, then flavor with the seasoned rice vinegar, stirring to distribute. Let sit until ready to use.
- Preheat a grill pan on medium heat.
- Add the asparagus, peppers and shiitake mushrooms to a bowl, then toss with the olive oil. Season with 2 teaspoons soy sauce and a pinch of pepper. Grill the vegetables, turning as needed, until lightly charred, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove to a cutting board. Halve the asparagus, then set aside. Slice the peppers and mushrooms into thin strips.
- Present the grilled vegetables on a platter, along with the cabbage, carrot, cucumber and avocado, and allow everyone to build their own hand rolls.
- To make the hand rolls: Lay a halved nori sheet, shiny-side down, on a clean surface. Add 1/4 cup of the sushi rice to the left edge of the nori and flatten slightly. Top with the desired vegetables. Bring the bottom left corner up and over the fillings to the top edge of the rectangle, creating a cone. Now roll the cone down the remaining strip of nori. Use a couple grains of rice to secure the nori to itself to help keep it rolled. Drizzle the top with the sriracha mayonnaise and sprinkle over the sesame seeds. Serve alongside the ginger and soy sauce for dipping.

Steps:
- For the rice:
- Mix together vinegar, sugar, and salt.
- Rinse the rice in colander and drain. Put the rice and water in medium saucepan with a tight fitting lid. Bring to a boil over high heat, reduce heat to very low and simmer, tightly covered. (For a good seal wrap the pan's lid tightly with a small kitchen towel and cover the saucepan. Make sure the towel's edges are folded up well away from the heat.) Cook until all the water is absorbed, about 15 minutes. Remove the rice from the heat (don't uncover) and set aside for 10 minutes.
- Fluff the rice with a fork and transfer it to a large bowl. Add the vinegar mixture and toss with the rice, using a wooden spoon. Spread it out on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Fan the rice continuously with a fan or magazine until cooled. Cover the rice with a damp towel.
- To assemble rolls:
- Place the sushi mat with the slats running crosswise directly in front of you on a clean work space. Lay a sheet of nori shiny-side down and lined up with the closest edge of the mat. Lightly moisten fingers with water, and evenly press about 1/4 of the rice onto the nori, with 1 1/2-inches uncovered at the far edge. Line up the fillings about 1-inch from the closest near edge, evenly across the rice. Leave 1-inch of rice uncovered at the far edge.
- Beginning with the near edge of the mat, tightly roll up the nori, rice, and fillings into a cylinder. Firmly tug on the rounded mat over the roll as you pull on the far edge of the mat to tighten the roll. Open the mat, dab unsealed edge of nori with a bit of water and roll the sushi forward to seal. Transfer the sushi to a plate and cover with damp paper towels. Repeat with remaining rice and fillings.
- Cut each sushi roll, crosswise, into 8 pieces with a sharp wet knife.
- Serve with bowl of soy sauce for dipping.

Steps:
- Make the rice. Combine the rice and 3 1/4 cups water in a rice cooker and cook according to the manufacturer's instructions. A rice cooker is the best way to get perfect sticky-firm rice, but if you don't have one, just use a saucepan.
- Fold in the vinegar. Combine the vinegar, sugar and 1 teaspoon salt in a saucepan over medium heat, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Transfer the cooked rice to a large wooden bowl (traditionally, a wooden tub). Drizzle a quarter of the vinegar mixture over a wooden spoon or spatula onto the rice. Fold the rice gently with the spoon to cool it and break up any clumps; be careful not to smash the grains. Fold in the remaining vinegar mixture and let the rice sit 5 minutes.
- Spread the rice. Cover a bamboo sushi mat with plastic wrap. Place a half nori sheet rough-side up on the mat. Moisten your hands and scoop a handful of rice, slightly larger than a lemon, onto the nori. Press the rice to spread it evenly up to the edges of the nori, moistening your fingers as you go. Sprinkle with sesame seeds.
- Prepare the vegetables. Peel the cucumber and slice into matchsticks. (Morimoto cuts the entire cucumber into a paper-thin sheet, then quickly slices it into strips-but he's had some practice.) Thinly slice the avocado, tomato and red onion; peel the tough ends of the asparagus.
- Add the filling. Carefully flip over the nori so it's rice-side down on the mat with the short end facing you. Spread a bit of wasabi paste in a line about one-third of the way up the nori-it's spicy, so use it sparingly. Arrange a few pieces each of lettuce, cucumber, avocado, tomato and onion in a tight pile in the lower third of the sheet. It's OK if the vegetables hang over the edges of the nori.
- Roll the sushi. Roll the sushi away from you with your hands, tucking in the vegetables as you go. Remove the mat from under the roll and place it on top. Press the roll into a compact rectangular log, using the mat to help you.
- Slice the roll. Cut the sushi roll into 4 to 6 pieces. Repeat with the remaining nori, rice and vegetables. Serve with pickled ginger and more wasabi.

Steps:
- Place the rice and stock cube in a pot and add 500 ml of boiling water. Bring back to a boil, cover, lower the heat and simmer for 7-10 minutes or until the water has been absorbed. Allow the rice to chill.
- Place a sushi sheet on a flat surface or on a bamboo mat. Spread evenly with the mashed avocado, leaving a 1/2 inch border.
- Add a thin layer of rice.
- Arrange a row of each remaining ingredient in the center of the roll. Carefully fold the edge of the sheet closest to you over the filling. Tuck the end in and begin to roll, as tightly as possible. Before you reach the end, moisten the top edge of the nori sheet with a little water so it sticks. Wrap in cling film and place in the fridge until ready to eat.
- To serve slice the sushi with a very sharp knife into 1/2 - 1 inch pieces. Serve with a little tamari/soy sauce.

I found this at a Japanese steakhouse. My wife would never go near raw fish but this is cooked, an absolute must try for the sushi beginner! Go easy on the wasabi though. Kids love it too as an alternative to fish sticks.
