Description

Experience the vibrant flavors and textures of the Las Vegas Roll, a delightful sushi that combines fresh salmon, crispy jalapeños, and creamy avocado, perfect for creative cooking at home.


Ingredients

  • 1 jalapeño pepper
  • 1/4 avocado
  • 4 oz fresh salmon
  • 2 nori sheets
  • 1 1/2 cups seasoned sushi rice
  • 2 tbsp Japanese mayo
  • 1 cup tempura batter
  • Oil for frying


Instructions

  1. Begin by washing and cleaning the jalapeño pepper. Slice it in half lengthwise to remove the seeds under running water.
  2. Proceed to slice the jalapeño into thin long strips. Cut the avocado and salmon into long sticks.
  3. Prepare the cold Japanese tempura batter using the boxed mix, then coat and fry the jalapeño until crispy.
  4. Lay out each nori sheet on a bamboo mat. Use 3/4 cup of sushi rice for each roll.
  5. Spread sushi rice evenly across the nori surface and arrange the fillings: tempura jalapeño, salmon, avocado, and drizzle with mayo.
  6. Lift the bamboo mat and press before rolling away tightly. Dip each roll into tempura batter and deep fry in hot oil for 1-3 minutes.
  7. Let the rolls cool on parchment paper before slicing into bite-sized pieces.

Notes

Experiment with different fillings and presentation styles to make your sushi experience even more enjoyable. Adjust frying times to achieve your preferred level of crispiness.
