Spicy Yellowtail Roll Sushi

Spicy Yellowtail Roll Sushi is a popular type of sushi roll found in many Japanese restaurants and sushi bars. It consists of a sheet of nori, or seaweed, filled with a mixture of yellowtail, or hamachi, and a spicy mayonnaise sauce. The roll is then cut into small pieces, and served with soy sauce, wasabi, and pickled ginger. Spicy Yellowtail Roll Sushi is a delicious and unique way to enjoy the flavor of fresh yellowtail.

Ingredients (2 Persons)

2-3 tablespoons wasabi mayonnaise
1-2 tablespoons Sriracha sauce
4 ounces yellowtail, thinly sliced
3-4 sheets of nori, cut in half
2 cups sushi rice, cooked
1 avocado, thinly sliced

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, mix together the wasabi mayonnaise and Sriracha sauce until combined.
Step 2

Lay a sheet of nori on a bamboo rolling mat and spread 1/2 cup of sushi rice over the nori. Be sure to spread the rice evenly, leaving about 1/4 inch of nori uncovered at the edge farthest away from you.
Step 3

Lay the yellowtail slices over the sushi rice, then spread some of the wasabi-Sriracha sauce over the fish. Place a few slices of avocado over the yellowtail.
Step 4

Using the rolling mat, roll the sushi away from you, using the mat to help shape it into a cylinder. Continue rolling until the edge of the nori touches the sushi, then seal the sushi with a few drops of water.
Step 5

Cut the sushi into 8 even pieces with a sharp knife and serve with soy sauce and pickled ginger.
