Maki sushi
Easy and fun to make at home!
Maki is a traditional type of sushi roll, made by wrapping fillings in sushi rice and nori seaweed on the outside. The possibilities for fillings are endless, and these are a great way to get creative!
Step 1
For the fillings, we would recommend cucumber, carrot and salmon - slice each of these into thin strips. Alternatively, you can use other fillings that you prefer, such as avocado.
Step 2
Place a sheet of nori on the rolling mat, and cover approximately two thirds of it with a 1cm thick layer of cooked sushi rice, leaving around 7cm empty at one end. Lay your fillings in a straight line in the centre of the sushi rice.
Step 3
Brush some water across the edge of the bare end of the nori, before using the rolling mat to start rolling up the ingredients away from you.
Step 4
Once you’ve finished rolling the sushi, remove the rolling mat, and use a sharp knife to create individual pieces of sushi.
Step 5
Serve with soy sauce and wasabi.
