Nori-less Salmon Sushi

Happy Chinese New Year!! Today was a very busy day. We had to visit both my relatives and my husband's. Since we have little Gwynnie in tow and keep on moving from one place to another, her meals had to be something simple, light and easy to eat. After so much thought, Sushi came to the rescue. In this salmon version, I used thinly cooked omelet instead of nori sheets. The picture may not look that great since I took it in the car. hehehe...


Nori-less Salmon Sushi

Omelete sheet:
2 eggs, beaten

Filling:
1/2 carrot, grated
2 big shitake mushroom, thinly sliced
15 gr salmon fillet

Rice:
1 cup white rice
1 tbsp mirin
1 tsp sugar

1. For the omelete, pour little bit of the eggs into the pan until it form a thin omelete. Cook throughly and repeat with the rest of the eggs.
2. Mix rice, mirin and sugar, set aside
3. Preheat oven to 180 C and bake salmon for about 10-15 minutes. Cut into little pieces.
4. Steam carrot & mushroom for about 15-20 minutes

Assembly:
1. On a sushi roller, put the omelete sheet and spread some of the rice on top.
2. Put carrot on one corner of the sheet, then put mushroom and salmon on top of the carrot.
3. Roll until it forms a log, cut, and serve.

You can always be creative with the sushi filling by using different kind of meats and vegetables. The possibility is endless!
