Ingredients

  • 150 g sushi rice
  • 150 g smoked salmon (thin slices)
  • 2 tsp wasabi paste
  • 60 ml soy sauce
  • 30 g pickled ginger

Instructions

    Cook the sushi rice according to package instructions and let it cool.

    Cut the smoked salmon into 20 strips about 3 cm wide.

    Divide the rice into 20 portions and shape each with dampened hands into loose balls.

    Place a piece of plastic wrap (about 15 cm x 15 cm) on the work surface. Put one salmon strip in the middle, spread wasabi thinly over it, and top with one rice ball.

  5. 5.

    Lift the four corners of the plastic wrap, fold over the rice, and press to form a firm ball of rice and fish.
