Combining creamy avocado, crisp cucumber, and savory imitation crab meat (often used instead of real crab) wrapped in a sheet of nori (seaweed) and sushi rice creates a delightful harmony of flavors and textures. But why stop at the classic when you can take it up a notch with krill? Let’s try this recipe with a little twist of krill meat.

Servings: 32 rolls

Preparation time: 1 hour

Cooking time: 25 minutes

Calories: 47 cal per roll

Instructions

  • 1 cup sushi rice, rinsed and drained
  • 1 cup water
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds, toasted
  • 1 tablespoon black sesame seeds
  • Bamboo sushi mat
  • 4 Nori sheets
  • 1/2 small cucumber, seeded and julienned
  • 1 1/2 oz. krill – quickly poached in salted boiling water and then shocked in an ice bath
  • 1/2 medium ripe avocado, peeled and julienned
  • Soy sauce, prepared wasabi, and pickled ginger slices, optional

Directions

  1. In a large saucepan, combine rice and water and let it stand for 30 minutes.
  2. Place the saucepan with rice over high heat and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes or until water is absorbed and the rice is tender.
  3. Remove from the heat. Let it stand, covered, for 10 minutes.
  4. in a small bowl, combine vinegar, sugar, and salt. Stir vigorously until sugar is dissolved.
  5. Transfer rice to a large shallow bowl and drizzle with vinegar. Use a wooden paddle or a spoon to stir the rice with a slicing motion to cool slightly. Cover with a damp cloth to keep it moist.
  6. Sprinkle toasted and black sesame seeds onto a plate and set aside.
  7. Place the sushi mat on a work surface so it rolls away from you, and line it with plastic wrap. Place 3/4 cup rice on plastic. With moistened fingers, press rice into an 8-inch square. Top with one nori sheet.
  8. Arrange a small amount of poached krill, cucumber, and avocado about 1-1/2 inch from the bottom edge of the nori sheet. Roll up the rice mixture over the filling, using the bamboo mat to lift and compress the mix while rolling. Remove plastic wrap as you roll.
  9. Remove the mat and roll sushi rolls in sesame seeds and cover with plastic wrap.
  10. Repeat with the remaining ingredients to make eight rolls. Cut each into eight pieces and serve with soy sauce, wasabi, and ginger slices if desired.
