Cucumber sushi
This fresh take on the traditional sushi is so much easier to make. It's the perfect appetizer for summer barbecues and it's easy to pack in lunch boxes. Don't forget the soy!
INGREADIENT
- 2 Lebanese cucumbers
- 1/2 red capsicum
- 1/2 avocado
- 1/2 cup sushi rice cooked
- 1 tbs soy sauce *to serve
Direction
- Finely slice the capsicum and avocado.
- Cook the rice according to the packet instructions. Let it cool.
- Cut each cucumber in half and use an apple corer to hollow out the centres. You may need to dry out the cavity, so that the rice will stick better. To do this, wrap a chopstick with a paper towel and use it to dab the cavity dry.
- Stuff about two teaspoons of cooked rice into the cavity, then use a knife to press the rice to the side, to make way for the other veggies.
- Slide in a few slices of capsicum and avocado until the cavity is fully stuffed.
- Cut into slices and serve with soy sauce.
