     Quinoa Sushi

Category   Entrees - Maindishes
Sub Category   Vegetarian
Servings   8 rolls

Ingredients
1 1/2 c. quinoa
3 c. water
1 avacado
2-3 cucumbers
handful of radishes
lettuce leaves
black and white seasame seeds, toasted
nori sheets
2 tbsp. brown rice vinegar
 
1 tbsp. water
1 tbsp. honey
1 tsp. sea salt
pickled ginger
soy sauce

Instructions
1. Combine the quinoa and water in a medium pot. Bring to a boil, then dial down the heat and simmer with the lid on for 15-20 minutes (or until all of the water has absorbed). When done, transfer the quinoa to a large bowl and let cool. 2. Slice all of your vegetables- slice the cucumber into very thin strips. Use a sharp knife or a mandoline to thinly slice the radishes. Slice the avocado. Lay out all of your vegetables on a cutting board near where you’ll be rolling the sushi. 3. Add the tezu to the slightly cooled quinoa and gently toss to coat. Then, let cool completely.
4. Once the quinoa has cooled, prepare your workspace- place a small bowl of water near your station; you’ll want to dip your hands in there as you work. Place the bowl of quinoa and vegetables next to you and prepare a cutting board on which you’ll roll the sushi. 5. Next, place a sushi mat on your cutting board. Top with a sheet of nori (shiny side down) almost to the edge of the mat that’s closest to you.
6. Dip your hands in the bowl of water and use them to take some quinoa from the bowl and evenly spread it over the nori. Leave a small border along the edge that is furthest from you. 7. Arrange the vegetables in a thin line running through the center of the mat. Place a leaf or two of lettuce over the quinoa first, then add a few slices of cucumber, radish, and avocado. Sprinkle with sesame seeds. Be careful to not overfill, otherwise your roll will burst.
7. Holding the edge of the mat with your thumbs, lift it along with the filling and roll away from you. Hold the filling as you roll and gently pull the mat as you continue rolling. Once you have a neat roll, fold your hands over the mat to tighten the roll. Moisten the edge of the nori with water to seal. 8. Slide the roll off of the mat and use a very sharp to cut it into individual pieces. 9. Serve sushi alongside pickled ginger and soy sauce.
