No, it is not a traditional Korean food, but it is quite a simple meal to cook. I’ve been suffering from time consuming dishes lately, so I needed a break. I wonder if this sushi is available in Japan. Kat if you are reading this post, please tell me!
I think, it can be a good picnic meal or dinner party appetizer.

Ingredients for 12 sushi rolls (Big meal for 1 person, light snack for 2 people)

  • Freshly steamed white rice for 1 person
  • Tuna 250 g (drained of its oil)
  • 1/4 an onion
  • 3 crab sticks
  • 1 cucumber
  • Dashi (mix these together) - Vinegar 1 tbsp, Sugar 2 tsp, Salt 1 tsp, [1] Refined rice wine 1 tsp
  • Salad sauce - Mayonnaise 3 tbsp, Pepper 4 sprinkles, Salt 4 sprinkles

Preparation

1. Cool down the rice for about 10 minutes.

Tips

  1. When rice seem to stick on your hand, use cold water. (have a bowl of cold water next to you.)
  2. The height of rice’s dough ball should be shallower than the sliced cucumber’s height. (to hold the tuna salad topping)
