The Red Dragon roll is an inside out maki roll. The technique to make this roll is a little more advanced then the basic maki roll. See more instruction in the Making Sushi section.
Ingredients:
- 2Tsp Mayonnaise
- 1/4Tsp Cayenne pepper
- 1/4Tsp Wasabi
- 1/3c Diced tuna
- 1 Sheet nori
- 3/4c Sushi rice
- 4 Slices tuna and 4 slices avocado (approx 3/4″x2″)
Spread sushi rice on nori sheet fully covering the sheet. Lay a piece of plastic wrap on over the rice and flip it over on the bamboo mat so the nori side is up. (see image below) Mix the mayo, cayenne pepper, wasabi, and diced tuna in a small bowl and spread it across the center of the nori sheet. Roll the nori as if you were making a basic maki roll but be careful to pull back the plastic wrap as you roll. At this point it is easiest if possible to place the roll on your serving tray and cut. Top the roll off with alternating slices of the tuna and avocado. For color and a little extra spice the slices are garnished with wasabi and red chili sauce dots. This roll can also be garnished with tempura crunch flakes sprinkled across the top. If you have trouble finding fresh tuna in your area order it here from Catalina Offshore Products.
