This is low fat, low sugar, gluten free and can be vegetarian. What more could you ask?? Well , I suppose low calorie. !!!!. Which it is.
200
g of uncooked Quinoa will provide 3 cups of cooked Quinoa. That is
1/2 a cup for each full sushi roll, which I the cut into 3 .
You can just see the beautiful Japanese platter, on which I am serving the sushi. This was a gift. From my SS.
I
will give basic instructions, as you can fill the sushi, with
whatever you like. I made 1/2 with smoked salmon and 1/2 vegetarian.
You will need 6 nori sheets.
Place 200g of Quinoa into TMX steamer basket and pour 1 litre of water over the grains. Cook 17 mins./ 100 / speed 3.
When
cooked, drain well and tip into a bowl and when cooled a little, add 1
Tablespoon of Rice wine Vinegar that has 1 teaspoon of caster sugar and
1/2 teaspoon of salt dissolved in it.
Allow to cool and then proceed
with making the sushi in the usual manner. MAKE SURE YOU ROLL THE SUSHI
FIRMLY , as it doesn't have the same sticking quality as rice.
Great idea to use quinoa. I love the stuff, however my family are a little hesitant. I am looking for more quinoa recipes
