Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Sushi rice
- 2 cups Water
- 2 tablespoons Rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 8 ounces Fresh salmon (sashimi-grade)
- 1 large Avocado
- 1 medium Cucumber
- 5 whole Nori sheets
- 0.25 cup Dairy-free mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon Fresh dill (optional)
- 1 tablespoon Toasted sesame seeds
Instructions
Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear, then drain.
In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed rice and 2 cups of water. Bring to a boil over medium heat, then reduce the heat to low and cover. Cook for about 15 minutes, or until the water is absorbed and the rice is tender.
Remove from heat and let it rest, covered, for an additional 10 minutes.
In a small bowl, mix the rice vinegar, sugar, and salt until dissolved. Gently fold the mixture into the cooked rice, and allow the rice to cool to room temperature.
While the rice is cooling, cut the salmon into thin strips approximately 1/2 inch wide.
Slice the avocado in half, remove the pit, and slice into thin strips.
Peel the cucumber and slice into thin matchstick pieces.
Mix the dairy-free mayonnaise with the lemon juice and, if desired, add finely chopped fresh dill for a herby flavor.
Lay a nori sheet on a clean, dry surface. Spread about 1/2 cup of the prepared sushi rice over the left third of the nori sheet, pressing gently and leaving a border around the edges.
Place a few strips of salmon, avocado, and cucumber on top of the rice.
Drizzle a small amount of the prepared mayonnaise over the filling.
Sprinkle a few toasted sesame seeds over the ingredients.
Fold the bottom left corner over the filling and begin rolling the nori into a cone shape using water to seal the edge.
Repeat with the remaining nori sheets and ingredients.
Serve immediately and enjoy your fresh and tasty Soy-Free Salmon Hand Rolls.
