Categories     Short Grain Rice

Time 15m

Yield 40 sushi pieces, 2-3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

5 cups cooked white rice
1 (12 ounce) can Spam, cut into 1/2 -inch strips and fried
5 pieces cucumbers, same size as Spam strips, length of nori sheet
5 sheets nori (seaweed)
mayonnaise
wasabi paste (optional)
maggi seasoning sauce (optional)

Steps:

  • Place sheet of nori on bamboo mat and align with edge nearest you.
  • Using a moistened hand, spread about 3/4-1 cup of rice evenly over 5 x 8-inch area leaving 2 inches nori at the far end. Using a knife, spread a light layer of mayo on the rice surface. If adding wasabi, spread a light layer now.
  • Arrange cucumber stick(s) 1 inch from edge nearest you, followed by Spam strip(s). Lift mat with thumbs; keep cucumber and meat in place with fingers, and roll mat over meat and away from you.
  • When mat touches the rice, lift mat and continue to roll as you would for a jelly roll. Roll again in mat and apply slight pressure to tighten roll.
  • To serve, cut each roll into eight pieces. Arrange sushi slices on platter, cut side up.
  • I like to just sprinkle a dash of Maggi seasoning sauce onto each sushi, rather than dipping the entire thing in soy sauce, but the choice is yours!
  • Enjoy!

SPICY SNAPPER MAKI ROLL (SUSHI)



Spicy Snapper Maki Roll (Sushi) image

Provided by Ben Robinson

Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 4 rolls

Number Of Ingredients 12

One 8-ounce red snapper fillet
5 tablespoons Kewpie mayonnaise
2 tablespoons sriracha
1 tablespoon wasabi paste, plus more for serving
2 cups cooked sushi rice, cooled to room temperature
1 1/2 tablespoons seasoned rice vinegar
4 nori sheets
1 English cucumber, peeled and sliced lengthwise into 1/2-inch wide strips
1 avocado, sliced crosswise into 1/2-inch pieces
2 tablespoons furikake spice
2 ounces salmon roe (about 1/4 cup)
Toasted sesame oil, pickled ginger and soy sauce, for serving

Steps:

  • Remove all skin, pin bones, blood lines and sinew from the snapper fillet. Slice the fillet lengthwise into long strips about 1/2-inch wide and refrigerate until ready to use.
  • Whisk together 2 tablespoons of the mayonnaise with the sriracha in a small bowl. In a separate small bowl, whisk together the remaining 3 tablespoons of mayonnaise with the wasabi paste and a splash of water if needed to loosen the mixture. In a medium bowl, gently combine the cooked sushi rice with the vinegar.
  • Lay a piece of plastic that is bigger than the nori sheet on a clean work surface. Lay a nori sheet on top of the plastic in the center. Dip your fingers in water as needed to keep them from sticking to the rice, then use your fingers to spread 1/2 cup of the sushi rice evenly on the nori sheet and gently press down. Flip the nori sheet over so the rice is face down.
  • Spoon about 2 teaspoons of the sriracha mayonnaise horizontally across the center of the nori sheet. Place 2 strips of snapper on top of the mayonnaise, then top with a strip of cucumber and 4 to 5 slices of avocado. Using the plastic wrap as a guide, roll the sushi as tight as possible into a log. Trim any excess nori as needed. Remove the plastic and use a sushi mat to form the sushi into a uniform round roll with a flat bottom. Repeat with the remaining ingredients to assemble three more rolls.
  • Cut each roll into 6 to 9 pieces. Use a spoon to smear about 1 tablespoon of the wasabi mayonnaise on one side of the serving plate. Place the sushi on the other side of the plate, then sprinkle with some of the furikake. Place about 1 tablespoon salmon roe on top of the wasabi mayonnaise and garnish the plate with a splash of toasted sesame oil. Serve immediately with pickled ginger, soy sauce and wasabi paste.

Tips:

  • Choose the right spam: Opt for canned spam with less salt and a mild flavor.
  • Prepare the rice: Cook Japanese short-grain white rice according to package instructions. Make sure it's sticky and well-seasoned with rice vinegar, sugar, and salt.
  • Use a sharp knife: This will ensure clean cuts and prevent the rice from falling apart.
  • Layering is key: Start with a thin layer of rice, then add the spam, cucumber, and avocado. Roll tightly with a bamboo mat.
  • Chill before slicing: Refrigerate the rolls for at least 30 minutes before slicing to allow them to firm up.
  • Serve with accompaniments: Soy sauce, wasabi, pickled ginger, and sesame seeds are classic additions.

Conclusion:

Spam sushi maki rolls are a fun and delicious way to enjoy this iconic canned meat. With a few simple ingredients and some basic techniques, you can create a dish that's both visually appealing and satisfying to the taste buds. Don't be afraid to experiment with different fillings and toppings to create your own unique spam sushi rolls.
