Today, Japanese cuisine is very popular among our compatriots. And if a few years ago sushi and rolls could be tasted exclusively in restaurants, now many have learned how to cook these delicacies at home. Moreover, everything you need can be purchased at most large supermarkets. One of the most delicious Japanese dishes is baked rolls. At home, for their preparation, you can use shrimp, mussels, scallops, tuna and other ingredients. And making them is no more difficult than regular rolls. Today we decided to bring to your attention some very simple recipes for the preparation of this delicious dish.
Easy way to cook baked rolls
So, you decided to treat yourself and your family to such a dish. What do you need to buy? In principle, strict canons do not exist; any products can be used. Of course, we will offer our own version, and you can improve it, add something of your own, your favorite. It will take you a little time to prepare, and the finished rolls will not leave anyone indifferent.
Ingredients
If you decide to cook baked rolls at home, then stock up on the following ingredients: rice, rice vinegar, salt, sugar, nori seaweed leaves. As a filling, tuna and salmon, shrimp and avocado are well established. You can choose other products to your liking. Also grab a bamboo mat, mayonnaise and ketchup. Yes, still need small caviar.
Cooking process
Rinse the rice thoroughly, fill it with water and begin to gently stir. When the water becomes cloudy, drain it, and gently squeeze the rice. We rinse it again until the water becomes clear, and then let it dry a little. We spread the product in a deep dish and pour water at the rate of one glass of rice per 250 milliliters of water. Bring to a boil at maximum heat, then reduce the heat and cook for another 12 minutes. When the water boils, remove the rice from the stove and leave to infuse for another 15-20 minutes. We are preparing a gas station. To do this, mix
rice vinegar (25 grams per cup of rice) with 5 grams of salt and 15 grams of sugar. Mix the mass until the salt and sugar dissolve. To speed up this process, you can slightly heat the mixture.
We spread hot rice in an even layer in previously prepared dishes for mixing. Add dressing and begin to gently mix, so as not to violate the integrity of the grains. When the rice is well soaked in dressing, level it and cover it with a paper towel or napkin.
Now go to the preparation of the filling. To do this, cut the ingredients into thin strips. So that our baked rolls (at home they can be prepared no worse than in a restaurant) were more juicy and had a delicate specific aroma, you can add a little Japanese mayonnaise and cheese to the filling. In addition, you should prepare a mixture that you decorate the dish, and which will create a delicious crust. For this purpose, you can mix flying fish caviar (or other small caviar) with mayonnaise and ketchup.
We lay out a sheet of nori seaweed with the smooth side on a bamboo mat. We wet our hands with vinegar, take a little rice and spread it on a rough surface of nori with an even layer. We leave the upper and lower edges free by about 1 centimeter. We spread the filling closer to the upper edge of the algae. We put the thumbs under the mat, and hold the filling with the rest and begin to fold it gently. We roll the roll well so that its edges stick firmly to each other. Using a sharp knife dipped in rice vinegar, cut it into several small parts.
We spread the resulting rolls on a baking sheet and pour the prepared mixture on top. Bake them for about seven minutes in a preheated oven until the items are covered with a golden brown. The delicious dish is ready! This was one of the options for making baked rolls at home. If you are a fan of Japanese cuisine, be sure to try to cook this dish yourself.
Baked rolls: how to cook at home? Method number 2
In order to pamper ourselves with a delicious delicacy, we will need the following products: round-grain rice, crab sticks, nori seaweed, soft cream cheese, mayonnaise, garlic, soy sauce, capelin or flying fish roe .
Cooking process
Rinse the rice thoroughly several times until the water becomes completely clear. Pour rice into the pan, pour water and bring it to a boil over high heat under a closed lid, then reduce the heat and cook for 15 minutes. Turn off the stove and let it brew for another 15-20 minutes. We take a little rice with our hand and squeeze it so that we get a small (no more than 4 centimeters) dense cutlet. If the rice is cooked correctly, then this step will not be difficult for you. We wrap these cutlets in a nori leaf so that small "pockets" remain. We prepare the sauce, for which we mix mayonnaise, soy sauce, crushed garlic and caviar. We complement our rolls with finely chopped filling in the form of crab sticks or other ingredients to taste, placing them in “pockets”. Top with sauce. Bake the dish in the oven or microwave with grill for 7 minutes. Baked rolls should be served exclusively hot on the table, so you can enjoy their great taste and aroma. Enjoy your meal!
