sushi

I was invited to some friend’s house yesterday for Japanese food! She made great stuff; Sushi & Fried Potato Crockets.
I loved them both, but thought I would add a simple sushi recipe for you to try, it is worth it! It is light on the stomach, and extremely healthy.
Oh! It is easy to make as well.

Ingredients:

Sheets of seaweed paper (can be purchased in Asian or health food stores)
Grated carrot
Sliced scallion
Leftover cooked rice
Washed, torn fresh spinach
Slices of Smoked Salmon

Lay out a sheet of seaweed flat, on your work surface. Spread rice on it. Add veggies and salmon in form of stripes.
Roll up tight, encasing the veggies and rice within the seaweed sheet. Slice the rolls into 2" long rolls for eating.
Dip in wasabi (Japanese horseradish), pickled ginger, Chinese mustard, or seasoned rice vinegar.
You can do LOTS of things with this. Any vegetables that are good raw will go nicely - just chop them small enough to roll easily. Toasted sesame seeds can be added for a little crunch.
