Description
Crispy and savory Spicy Salmon Fried Sushi Rolls featuring tender salmon, creamy avocado, and a kick of spice.
Ingredients
Scale
- 300 g (1.5 cups) sushi rice
- 4 sheets of nori
- 200 g (7 oz) sushi-grade salmon, diced
- 1 ripe avocado, sliced
- 1 medium cucumber, julienned
- 4 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 2 teaspoons sriracha
- 2 eggs, whisked
- 100 g (1 cup) panko breadcrumbs
- Soy sauce for dipping
Instructions
- Rinse 300 g sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Combine it with 450 ml water in a rice cooker. Cook on the sushi setting until tender, about 20 minutes.
- Dice 200 g sushi-grade salmon into small pieces. Transfer to a bowl and add 2 tablespoons of the spicy mayo. Mix until evenly coated.
- Lay a nori sheet on the bamboo mat, shiny side down. With wet hands, spread 75 g sushi rice evenly over the nori, leaving 2.5 cm at the top. Place a line of salmon mixture, a few slices of cucumber, and avocado across the center.
- Using the mat, carefully lift the edge closest to you and roll it tightly over the filling. Wet the top edge with water to seal the roll. Repeat with remaining ingredients.
- In a shallow dish, combine 2 whisked eggs with 100 g of panko breadcrumbs. Roll each sushi log in the egg mixture followed by the breadcrumbs until well coated.
- Heat oil in a deep fryer or heavy pot to 180°C (350°F). Fry the rolls in batches for about 3-4 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Remove from oil and place on paper towels to drain.
- Remove the rolls from the mat and slice them into 6 pieces with a sharp knife. Serve with additional spicy mayo and soy sauce for dipping.
Notes
Allow sushi rice to cool before assembling, and do not overfill the rolls to prevent bursting during frying.
