Sushi rolls with Cold Smoked Rainbow Trout

 

Prep time: 10 minutes
Cooking time: 15 minutes, plus cooling
Makes: 18-20 sushi rolls

Method:

A sushi mat is not essential for this, but use it if you have one. Wasabi is Japanese hot horseradish and is available as a paste in tubes or as powder and can be found in most larger supermarkets or Oriental food stores.

  • Wash the rice under cold water, place in a small pan with the water and bring to the boil. Lower the heat, cover and simmer gently for 15 minutes until all the water is absorbed. Stir in the vinegar, sugar and salt and cool completely.
  • Cut the cucumber into long thin sticks, about 1 cm (1/2 inch) thick and separate the sheets of smoked trout.
  • Place a sheet nori either on a bamboo sushi mat or straight on the work top and top with a layer of smoked trout strips. Spread over half the cooled rice and place half the cucumber strips along the edge closest to you. Spread over a little wasabi.
  • Carefully roll up tightly to form a log and cut into slices on the diagonal about 1 cm (1/2in) thick. Repeat with the remaining ingredients to make 18-20 sushi.
  • Serve with the ginger and soy sauce and some extra wasabi.
