Today I introduce you to “2-Delicious-Type of Cucumber Sushi Roll”. Most people know about sushi rolls wrapped with dried seaweed. But this roll is wrapped with thin fried egg. The other cucumber roll is made with the rice side out. I think this is more colorful than regular sushi rolls, and it looks fancy. It is a very healthy and delicious dish!!
When you make sushi rolls, you need a Makisu which is a bamboo mat, to make a good shape. You can buy a Makisu at many Asian supermarkets and also on Amazon.
The recipe is
Make sushi rice vinegar with rice vinegar, sugar and salt. Mix the sushi rice vinegar and cooked rice. (You can buy some cooked rice. Also I have a pan cooked rice recipe. If you have a rice cooker, you might want to use it.)
Here is my cooked rice recipe in PDF: White Rice Recipe
Make thin fried egg (mix with slurry so as not to break easily). Spread the sushi rice on the egg on the Makisu. Place the cucumber and roll up.
To make cucumber inside-out sushi roll, spread the sushi rice on the dried seaweed. Place it rice side down on a piece of parchment paper on the Makisu, put the cucumber and roll up.

Thanks for the detailed explanation. I haven’t made sushi in ages (got spoiled by some good Japanese restaurants in New York!), but this makes me want to try again. Both options look so tasty! 🙂

Aww, I am so jealous! If you can have some sushi in New York, it is the best!!! However 🙂 when you have energy to make homemade sushi, it is good for you because you can make favorite sushi rice taste! (I like more vinegary sushi rice than many restaurants one. On the other hand, my husband likes sushi with plain cooked white rice!!)
