Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup Sushi Rice, rinsed and drained
- 2 tablespoons Rice Vinegar
- 1 medium Cucumber, julienned
- 1 ripe Avocado, sliced
- 1 medium Carrot, sliced or shredded
- 6 ounces Imitation Crab Meat, shredded (or substitute with real crab or tofu)
- 1 teaspoon Wasabi (optional)
- Soy Sauce for drizzling (or tamari for gluten-free)
- 2 tablespoons Sesame Seeds, toasted
- 2 Green Onions, chopped
- Nori Sheets, torn into strips for garnish (optional)
- Pickled Ginger for serving (optional)
Instructions
- Start by cooking the sushi rice according to package instructions. Typically, it uses a ratio of 1:1.25 rice to water. Let it sit for 10 minutes after cooking.
- While the rice is resting, mix rice vinegar and a pinch of salt in a small bowl. Stir into the cooled rice.
- Prepare your veggies and protein: julienne the cucumber, slice the avocado, and shred or cube the crab meat.
- Assemble your bowl starting with a scoop of sushi rice. Layer on cucumber, avocado, crab meat, and carrot.
- Drizzle soy sauce over the top and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Add wasabi and green onions if desired.
- Serve with pickled ginger on the side for extra zing.
Notes
For vegetarian options, use tofu or chickpeas mixed with seaweed. For gluten-free, use tamari instead of soy sauce.
