Mango Sushi Roll Recipe

Preparation of Sushi Rice

Begin by preparing the sushi rice. Wash the rice thoroughly until the water runs clear, then cook according to package instructions. Once cooked, season the rice with rice vinegar to add the characteristic sushi rice tang and allow it to cool to room temperature.

Preparing the Mango and Cheese Filling

While the rice cools, slice the fresh mango into thin strips and if using, prepare the cream cheese or similar soft cheese by cutting it into thin slices or spreading it evenly on the nori sheets.

Assembling the Sushi Roll

Place a nori sheet on a bamboo sushi mat, then spread an even layer of sushi rice over the nori, leaving a small border at the top to seal the roll. Arrange the mango slices and cream cheese in a line across the rice. Use the mat to roll the sushi tightly, starting from the bottom and rolling upwards. Wet the top edge of the nori with a little water to help seal the roll. Cut the roll into bite-sized pieces using a sharp, wet knife to prevent sticking.

Serving

Serve the Mango Sushi Rolls with soy sauce, pickled ginger, and wasabi on the side for dipping. Enjoy your sweet and creamy sushi delight as a refreshing appetizer or a unique dessert.
