About this recipe

Experience a creative twist on traditional sushi by combining the rich flavors of Africa with the art of sushi-making. This African Sushi Delight brings together shredded chicken, creamy avocado, and crisp cucumber wrapped in nori for a delightful culinary adventure.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups sushi rice
  • 4 sheets nori seaweed
  • 1 cup cooked chicken, shredded
  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • 1/2 cup cucumber, julienned
  • 1/4 cup pickled ginger
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds

Directions

  1. 1

    Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear, then cook according to package instructions. Let it cool.

  2. 2

    Place a sheet of nori on a bamboo sushi rolling mat.

  3. 3

    Spread a thin, even layer of sushi rice over the nori, leaving a 1-inch border at the top.

  4. 4

    Layer the shredded chicken, avocado slices, and cucumber strips across the rice.

  5. 5

    Using the bamboo mat, carefully roll the nori and rice over the fillings, applying gentle pressure to keep it tight.

    Seal the roll by moistening the border of the nori with a little water.

  7. 7

    Slice the sushi roll into even bite-sized pieces using a sharp knife.

  8. 8

    Garnish with pickled ginger, serve with soy sauce, and sprinkle sesame seeds on top.

Chef's tip

For a vegetarian version, replace shredded chicken with marinated tofu or grilled vegetables.
