VEGAN SUSHI STEEMKITCHEN CONTEST #2

Kon'nichiwa steemians, cheap and cheerful is on the menu, and this is local just about anywhere. It is cheap because no meat, and cheerful because nothing had to die, unless you one of those veggie activists who think plants have feelings. It costed under 10 dollars and enough for three of us with plenty left over, midnight snacks 😁There is a bit of preparation but with everything minus waiting it takes about an hour to make.

OK so what you need aka ingredients

1 block tofu
5 SUSHI sheets
2 cups sushi rice
2 avocado
1 carrot
Half red pepper
Half cucumber
flax seed
SUSHI ginger
Japanese rice vinigar
Wasabi
Liquid smoke
Soy sause

OK food prep no. 1 is tofu, it is best to do this in the morning. grab a block of tofu.

Chop.

Place in container to marinate. Squirt some liquid smoke.

Then pour some soy sause.

Then leave it in the fridge for the day.

Then get some sushi rice, best to read instructions on the box, some vary. Then pour some sushi vinigar when rice is done, I use 50ml, I like the zing.

To make the fake smoked salmon grab your tofu out of the fridge, and fry in a pan.

Fry till golden brown and crispy.

Then prepare the veggies. Some interesting facts, avocado is actually a fruit and belive it or not, it is also a berry. Not all avocado's are vegan, it has to be organic due to bee exploitation for migratory pollonasation, try and say that after a couple drinks. I buy only organic, even the tofu is made from organic Soya beans, because normal Soya beans are GMO and are a cause of deforestation.

OK, enough of the serious tree hugger talk and back to the cooking, Slice everything like so.

Then to roll up the the sushi. First sushi sheet.

Dump 1 fifth of the rice.

Spread it evenly leaving a gap on one side.

Add tofu.

Then avo.

Cucumber.

Red pepper.

Carrot.

Then roll it like a joint, if you never rolled a joint before, you should try, great for stress relief, especially if you light it up at the end.

OK, so that is one type, then for the other one with seeds on it, I use flax seeds instead of sesame, it just has more antioxidant and fiber, and more omega.

I use wax paper over my sushi roller for this 1

Dump the rice.

SUSHI sheet.

Tofu.

Avo and cucumber.

Red pepper.

Roll it up.

Sprinkle some flaxseed on it and leave it in the fridge for an hour

Once out of the fridge you can cut it

Then grab a bowl, add some ginger and wasabi

Then add soy sause

Then it is just a matter of dunking sushi in the bowl and munching it.
