California Rolls are a type of maki sushi (巻き寿司 - rolled sushi) made by rolling ingredients such as crab and avocado in nori and seasoned rice. Although rolled sushi originates in Japan, California Rolls are not from Japan. Roll up rice mixture over filling, using the bamboo mat to lift and compress the mixture while rolling; remove plastic wrap as you roll. Remove mat; roll sushi rolls in sesame seeds.
Steps to make California Rolls:
- Preparation: Cut the filling ingredients into the same lengths as the width of nori seaweed and 1-cm-thickness. Slice the avocado in eight lengthways.
- Place a sheet of nori onto cling film and spread the rice evenly (leave a front and end border to make it easier to roll up).
- Flip over the sushi rice on the nori seaweed onto a piece of cling film.
- Place the lettuce on first and then put on the other fillings.
- Roll the sushi from the front. Press the sushi tightly with your fingers. (Do not roll the cling film inside the sushi. When you roll, remove the cling film at the same time.)
- After rolling the sushi cover with cling film and a makisu mat. Press the sushi firmly inside the makisu mat. Leave the sushi to sit for 10 to 20 minutes to rest the rice.
- Coat the sushi with sesame seeds and flying fish roe. Use a spoon to spread the flying fish roe evenly.
- Garnish with daikon radish sprouts and serve. The hotness of the pickled ginger and daikon sprouts enhance the sushi flavour.
- My family doesn't like sushi rice so I use normal cooked rice but it is still tasty. Serve with mayonnaise and soy sauce.
- The leftover ingredients are quite colourful so use them to make 'seafood delight salad'!
Repeat with remaining ingredients to make eight rolls. Serve with soy sauce, wasabi and ginger slices if desired. A California roll or California maki is a makizushi sushi roll that is usually rolled inside-out, and containing cucumber, crab or imitation crab, and avocado. Sometimes crab salad is substituted for the crab stick, and often the outer layer of rice in an inside-out roll is sprinkled with toasted sesame seeds or roe such as tobiko from flying fish. As one of the most popular styles of sushi in.
