Fun Fruit Sushi Recipes

FRESH FRUIT SUSHI RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• In a medium pot combine the rice, water, sugar and salt. Cook on low heat for about 20 minutes or until all the rice absorbs the water.
• Add the coconut milk and vanilla. The mixture should be moldable. Cook a few minutes longer if it's too runny.
• Slice fruit of choice into long pieces.
• *Note: Use a potato peeler to shave thin slices off the mango.
• Lay a bamboo rolling pad on a counter top, and place a square of wax paper over top. Spread the rice about ½ inch (1 cm) thick over the paper into approximately a 7x5 inch (17x12 cm) rectangle.
• Toast a ¼ cup (25g) of coconut shreds for 3 minutes.
• Lay the fruit pieces on the rice, and roll up carefully. If rice sticks to the paper too much, try spreading it a little thicker.
• Coat the rolls with either the mango slices, or the toasted coconut.
• Slice each roll into 6 pieces.
• With the rest of the rice, roll into balls (like nigiri).
• Place thin slices of kiki or strawberries over top with half a blackberry on top to look like fish eggs.
• Blend ¼ cup (25 g) raspberries with ¼ cup (60 ml) water to make a dipping sauce.
• Enjoy!

FUN FRUIT SUSHI

Steps:

• To make sweet sticky "sushi" rice: In a medium saucepan over medium-low heat, melt the butter and marshmallows until completely soft. Remove from the heat and stir in the cooked rice until well blended. Spray the nigiri mold or ice cube tray lightly with nonstick spray. Take slices of the fruit medley and place in the bottom of the mold or ice cube tray. Spoon in rice and press gently into the fruit. Unmold the "sushi" and top with mini chocolate chips and toasted coconut, if desired.

GLUTEN-FREE FRUITI SUSHI

Steps:

• Place cereal in resealable food-storage plastic bag; seal bag and crush with fingers to make 3/4 cup.
• In medium microwavable bowl, microwave baking chips as directed on package until melted and stirred smooth. Add crushed cereal; stir until well coated.
• Unroll fruit snack rolls. For each sushi roll, spread 1/4 of cereal mixture on snack roll to within 1/2 inch of one short side. Arrange 3 candy worms, side by side, on cereal-covered short side.
• Starting with short side topped with candy worms, roll up each snack roll tightly, pressing unfilled short side of roll to seal. Let sushi rolls stand 5 to 10 minutes or until firm. Cut each roll into 4 slices. Store loosely covered.
