Lazy Woman’s California Roll Sushi

Layer 1

Freshly cooked short grain rice (I used one cup of raw rice)

Sushi Vinegar – stir together and nuke for a minute to melt the sugar:

1/8 c rice vinegar
1 T sugar
1 t salt

Pour the sushi vinegar over the hot rice, and stir until the liquid evaporates a little, and rice becomes shiny and sticky.

Layer 2

1 cucumber, thinly sliced
1 avocado, thinly sliced
Nori goma furikake (optional)
2 t roasted sesame seeds

Sprinkle rice with furikaki, then top with cucumber and avocado, arranged attractively. Sprinkle with sesame seeds.

Layer 3

3 King Crab legs
Tobiko (optional – flying fish roe, my favorite!)

Top everything with crab, and tobiko if using

1 package of nori sheets

Spoon sushi mixture onto nori sheets and dip in soy or ponzu, and enjoy!

Here is a link to the original recipe, which uses a sweet sauce that I personally don’t think the dish requires.
