Shrimp Sushi

I’m not usually much of a sushi eater but one of my G+ friends posted this and it looked pretty good. Being made with cooked shrimp means I’m much more likely to try it than most of the other types of sushi.

Note: the sriracha is said to be pretty spicy so you may want to adjust the amounts to taste.

  • Rice Vinegar
  • Shrimp
  • Cream Cheese
  • Cucumber
  • Garlic
  • Sriracha
  • Sesame Oil

Instructions
Cooking
  1. Steam the Shrimp
  2. Cook the rice (read the pack for directions)
  3. Take steamed shrimp and place in frying pan. -Add a 2 tablespoons of sesame oil.
  4. Add Garlic
  5. Add Flour or Panko (If flour just a small handful to "lightly coat" shrimp) (If panko you may do it by taste)
  6. Squeeze in Sriracha also by taste depending on how spicy you want your shrimp.
  7. Cut Cucumber in thin strips.
Rolling
  1. Place down sheet of Nori
  2. Use prepared rice to make a layer over top of the nori. Depending on how much rice you like in your rolls you can do a thin layer or a thick layer.
  3. Place your cream cheese, shrimp, and cucumber in 3 separate rows parallel to the direction you will be rolling.
  4. When rolling make sure to get a tight grip in it and make sure you tuck in the food as you roll it so it doesn't slip out. (If that makes sense)
  5. Once rolled use a little warm water to seal the roll.
  6. Cut roll to your liking in slices.
Sauce:
  1. /2 cup mayo
  2. tablespoons sriracha
  3. Splash of sesame oil
