Prep time

Ingredients

  • Lemon: juice 1/2 lemon
  • Soy Sauce: sweet soy sauce (kecap manis), to serve
  • Chive: 1 bunch chives
  • White Wine Vinegar: 2 tbsp rice or white wine vinegar
  • Avocado: 1 large avocado
  • Smoked Salmon: 4 large slices smoked salmon
  • Caster Sugar: 1 tsp caster sugar
  • Sushi Rice: 300g sushi rice
  • Nori: 4 sheets nori seaweed

Directions

  1. Put the rice in a small pan with 600ml water. Bring to the boil and cook for 10 mins until the water is absorbed and the rice is tender. Stir through the vinegar and sugar, cover and cool.
  2. Skin, stone and slice the avocado. Put in a bowl and squeeze over the lemon juice, turning the avocado to ensure the pieces are covered.
  3. Divide the rice between the nori sheets and spread it out evenly, leaving a 1cm border at the top and bottom. Lay the salmon over the rice, followed by the chives and finally position the avocado across the centre.
  4. Fold the bottom edge of the seaweed over the filling, then roll it up firmly. Dampen the top border with a little water to help it seal the roll. Repeat to make 4 rolls. At this stage, the rolls can be wrapped individually in cling film and chilled until ready to serve.
  5. Using a serrated knife, cut each roll into 8 rounds. Serve with sweet soy sauce for dipping.
