Smoked Salmon Hand Roll With Avocado And Cucumber
I just love sushi but I do not want to go to all that trouble of getting fresh fish for sometimes it is hard to find, so I use smoked salmon or other smoked fish. For me, it just workes out perfect and I have to say it's on the safe side, for unless you know your fish as fresh, it could make your meal a disaster.
Now I make a lot of sushi, I would say about twice a month or so. Especially for myself and my wife or for some family or friends get-togethers. Trust me, this recipe goes fast and sometimes I just can not keep up, so have a lot on standby or you could have a riot on your hands.
Now, I will tell you a secret about this video, I did not use the normal rice that is for sushi. I used Basmati rice (oh know I broke with tradition) for I just like it better for my taste. I did use the same method as preparing the rice in a traditional way, it is just has a different texture. Just try it and see if it works for you, and give me a comment on it.
Let me know how yours turned out.
Ingredients
Sheets of nori - Cut divided into two.
