Maki Sushi
Making Sushi at home is really easy and so much fun. You can experiment with your favourite ingredients and create your own customised Sushi roll.
I have made two types of rolls. One with Tempura Prawn and spicy Sriracha Mayo and the other with Crab Sticks and Wasabi Mayo. These days all the ingredients are readily available online and in supermarkets, Hence making Sushi at home isn't too difficult.

1/2 Cup Rice Vinegar

METHOD
- Cook the Sushi Rice according to the packet instructions.
- Transfer it to a glass or wooden bowl.
- In a bowl combine the vineger, sugar and salt till the sugar has completely dissolved.
- Pour this into the cooked rice and mix with a wooden spoon.
- In a small bowl combine the flour, water, baking soda and salt to form a thin batter for the Tempura.
- Dip the Prawns in the batter and deep fry till light brown and crisp on the outside.
- Place the Nori rough side up, on the bamboo mat.
- Spread an even layer of rice, leaving a 1cm margin on the side away from you.
- Place the Cucumber, Spring Onion Leaves and Tempura Prawns on the centre of the sheet.
- Apply the Sriracha Mayo evenly on the rice and roll with the help of the bamboo mat.
- When making the Crab Maki, place the Crab Sticks after placing the Cucumber and Spring Onion and spread the Wasabi Mayo on the rice and then roll.
- Cut the roll into 6-8 even slices using a sharp knife.
- Serve with a side of Wasabi and Soya Sauce.
