Total Time: 35 minutes
Servings: 4
Ingredients:
| Quantity | Ingredient |
|---|---|
| 1 cup | Sushi rice |
| 1/4 cup | Seasoned rice vinegar |
| 2 tbsp | Sesame seeds |
| 1/2 | Avocado, sliced |
| 1/2 sheet | Nori (seaweed), cut into strips |
| 3/4 cup | Smoked salmon, shredded |
| 1/2 | English cucumber, thinly sliced |
| 2 tbsp | Pickled ginger |
| 2 tbsp | Light mayonnaise |
| 2 tbsp | Milk |
| 2 tsp | Wasabi powder |
Instructions:
- In a saucepan, combine the sushi rice and 1 1/4 cups (300 mL) of water. π
- Bring the mixture to a boil, then cover and reduce the heat to low. Let it simmer for about 25 minutes or until the rice is tender and cooked through. π
- Once the rice is cooked, fluff it up with a fork and stir in the seasoned rice vinegar and sesame seeds. The vinegar adds that classic sushi flavor, while the sesame seeds bring a delightful crunch. π
- While the rice is cooking, prepare your toppings. Line an 8-inch (1.2L) round or square cake pan with plastic wrap. This will make it easier to remove the pizza later on. π½οΈ
- Using a spatula, press the cooked rice firmly and evenly into the prepared pan. Allow it to cool completely – this step helps the rice hold its shape when you assemble the pizza. βοΈ
- Once cooled, carefully turn the rice out onto a flat serving plate. This is your pizza crust base! π
- Now it’s time to add the toppings. Start by layering the sliced avocado on top of the rice crust. Avocado adds a creamy texture and a burst of freshness. π₯
- Using scissors, cut the nori (seaweed) into thin strips. Sprinkle these over the avocado for that authentic sushi taste. πΏ
- Next, scatter the shredded smoked salmon evenly over the pizza. The smoky flavor pairs beautifully with the other ingredients. π
- Add a layer of thinly sliced English cucumber for a refreshing crunch. π₯
- Sprinkle the pickled ginger on top. Its tangy flavor adds a zingy kick to each bite. π£
- In a small bowl, mix together the light mayonnaise, milk, and wasabi powder. Drizzle this flavorful sauce over the pizza. The combination of creamy mayo and spicy wasabi creates a delicious harmony of flavors. πΆοΈ
- Finally, cut your Sushi Pizza into wedges using a sharp knife or pizza cutter. Serve it up and enjoy the unique fusion of sushi and pizza! π
This Sushi Pizza is not only visually stunning but also a delightful explosion of flavors and textures. Whether you’re a sushi lover, a pizza enthusiast, or simply looking for something new to try, this recipe is sure to impress. Bon appΓ©tit! π΄β¨
