Description
I received this great recipe for Korean Sushi from a Korean friend of mine. It is different and very good!
Ingredients
- 1 cup uncooked glutinous white rice (sushi rice)
- 1 ½ cups water
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- salt, to taste
- 2 eggs, beaten
- 4 sheets sushi nori (dry seaweed)
- 1 cucumber, cut into thin strips
- 1 carrot, cut into thin strips
- 4 slices American processed cheese, cut into thin strips
- 4 slices cooked ham, cut into thin strips
- 2 teaspoons sesame oil
Instructions
- Rinse the rice in a strainer or colander until the water runs clear. Combine the rice with water in a saucepan. Bring to a boil
- then reduce the heat to low; cover and simmer until rice is tender
- 12 to 14 minutes. Spread cooked rice onto a baking sheet to cool. Season with 1 tablespoon of sesame oil and salt.
- While the rice is simmering
- pour the eggs into a skillet over medium-high heat and allow to cook without stirring or turning to get a flat layer of cooked egg. When egg is completely cooked
- remove from skillet and set aside on a cutting board to cool.
- Separate the nori sheets onto a flat surface and divide the cooled rice between them
- leaving only a half-inch strip of seaweed visible at the top of each sheet. Arrange strips of egg
- cucumber
- carrot
- cheese
- and ham in thin layers on top of the rice. Beginning with the bottom of each sheet of nori
- use a bamboo sushi mat to firmly roll each piece into a cylindrical shape. Brush each roll with 1/2 teaspoon of sesame oil and cut into six even pieces.
