Description

A fun and accessible twist on traditional sushi, featuring layers of crispy shrimp, creamy avocado, and zesty spicy mayo.

  1. Cook the sushi rice according to package instructions. Once done, mix with rice vinegar and let it cool.

  3. In a skillet, cook shrimp until pink and crispy, then remove from heat.
  4. In a mold or a small cup, layer the sushi rice, crispy shrimp, avocado, and cucumber.
  5. Carefully remove the stack and place it on a nori square.
