Vegetarian Sushi Roll with Asparagus and Carrots

Vegetarian sushi roll with asparagus and carrots is a delicious, healthy, and easy-to-make sushi roll. This recipe combines the crunchy texture of asparagus and carrots with the creamy texture of avocados and cucumbers, making it a delightful combination of flavors and textures. The asparagus and carrots are lightly cooked to make them easier to roll, while the avocados and cucumbers keep their crunch. The sushi is then topped with a light, soy-based sauce, adding a hint of sweetness and umami. This vegetarian sushi roll is a great option for lunch or dinner, and can also be served as an appetizer for a dinner party.

Ingredients (2 Persons)

  • 4 cups cooked sushi rice
  • 4 sheets of nori
  • 1/2 bunch of asparagus, sliced into thin sticks
  • 1 large carrot, peeled and cut into thin sticks
  • 1/4 cup rice vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt

Directions

  • Step 1
    In a medium bowl, combine the rice vinegar, sugar and salt. Stir until the sugar and salt are dissolved.
  • Step 2
    Add the cooked sushi rice to the bowl and stir to combine. Cover the bowl with a damp towel and let sit for 10 minutes.
  • Step 3
    To assemble the roll, lay a sheet of nori on a sushi mat. Using wet hands, spread a thin layer of the sushi rice on the nori.
  • Step 4
    Add a small handful of the asparagus and carrot sticks to the center of the nori. Carefully roll the sushi mat up, tucking the ends of the nori inward as you roll.
