Supplies

4 cups of cooked rice (brown or white)

Sushi vinegar 1/3 cup


*One large egg

*Sugar 1/2 tsp

*A pinch of salt

*A dash of Shiro-dashi (fish stock)


Oil for cooking 2 tbsp


One package of fake/Imitation crab legs

Small tray of Masago (fish roes)

One package of smoked salmon

One avocado


One Sushi Nori (a dried seaweed sheet)


A bamboo sushi rolling mat

Plastic wrap

Cooking scissors

Step 1: Prepare Sushi Rice

Pour the sushi vinegar over the cooked rice and fold the rice gently to incorporate. If the rice is warm, let it cool.

Step 2: Prepare Egg

Combine all the *ingredients and give it a stir.

Step 3: Cook the Egg Mixture

Set a small frying pan to a medium heat and add 2 tbsp of oil to the pan. Pour a half of the egg mixture to the pan and cook one side first and flip the egg and cook the other side. Once cooked, transfer it to a cutting board. Repeat this step for the rest of the egg mixture.

Step 4: Spread Rice Onto the Sushi Mat

Cover the sushi mat with plastic wrap. Cut a sheet of nori in half (keep one half for decoration). Put down a 1/4inch layer of rice onto the mat and lay a half of nori on the rice and leave the rice 1/2 inch above the edge of nori.

Step 5: Add Ingredients Inside of Sushi

Shred one fake/imitation crab leg in half. Slice an avocado. Lay down the crab legs and sliced avocado onto the 1/3 of the nori horizontally.

Step 6: Make a Roll Sushi

Roll up the mat with the ingredients inside and keep a firm hold on the matt. Roll it up again to make a "sealed" roll. Shape it up and cut the roll in half.

Step 7: Prepare Crab Legs for "Mummy" Sushi

Shred a few crab legs to mimic bandage for a "mummy" sushi.

Step 8: Make a "mummy" Sushi

Remove the wrap from the cut roll sushi. Wrap each sushi up with the shredded crab legs.

Step 9: Make a Ball-Shaped Sushi With Egg

Lay down a small plastic wrap on the counter. Lay one of the cooked egg sheet on the wrap and set a bite size of rice in the center. Wrap it up tightly and shape it like a ball. Repeat this step for another one.

Step 10: Make a Ball-Shaped Sushi With Smoked Salmon

Lay down a small plastic wrap on the counter. Lay a slice(s) of smoked salmon on the wrap and set a bite size of rice in the center. Wrap it up tightly and shape it like a ball. Repeat this step for one or two more sushi.

Step 11: Make a Ball-shaped Sushi With Masago

Lay down a small plastic wrap on the counter. Lay 2-3 tbsp of Masago on the wrap and set a bite size of rice in the center. Wrap it up tightly and shape it like a ball. Repeat this step for one or two more sushi.

Step 12: Plate and Decorate

Plate each sushi on a platter and decorate them with nori and crab legs. Be creative and enjoy!
