Avocado Sushi Bites w/ Tamari Recipe:
Yield: 4 Servings
Cook Time: 45 Min
Ingredients:
- 1 Cup Sushi Rice (Cal Rose)
- 1 tsp Rice Wine Vinegar
- 1 Avocado, Sliced
- 1 Sweet Potato, Peeled, Cut into Rounds ¼ in thick
- 1 tsp Sea Salt
- 1 tsp Black Pepper
- 2 Green Onions, Sliced
- 1 Tbsp Vegetable or Sesame Oil
- Tamari or Teriyaki Sauce for Dipping
Directions:
1. Rinse sushi rice using a mesh strainer, cook rice according to package instructions. While the rice is cooking, bring a medium pot of water to a boil.
2. Add sweet potato slices to the water and cook for 8-10 minutes until the centers can be easily pierced with a fork. Once finished cooking, strain water and set aside.
3. Once sushi rice has finished cooking, place rice into a bowl, add the rice wine vinegar, mix using a wooden spoon or fork, let cool.
4. Slice avocado into slices and season with salt and pepper.
5. To build the sushi bite, place 1/4 cup rice on parchment or wax paper. Form the rice into a circle and pat down.
6. Place a sweet potato slice, avocado slices, and another sweet potato slice on top of each other over the rice. Using another ¼ cup rice, form the rice around the sweet potatoes and avocado slices, sealing the edges.
7. Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add vegetable or sesame oil. Cook each sushi bite for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown. Serve with tamari or teriyaki sauce, enjoy!
Tips/Tricks:
- If the sushi bites start to stick, add more oil to the pan.
- Try not to move the bites until 3-4 minutes have passed on each side, this will form a crust and help the rice to stay together instead of “tearing” apart.
