Vegan sushi bowl

Gepubliceerd op

Yes, you read that right: not just vegetarian but a vegan sushi bowl! Vegan means veganistic, which means the dish contains no animal products at all. No meat or fish, and also no milk, eggs, honey or other animal-derived products.

I don't deliberately cook vegan: I enjoy a piece of meat or fish and I also like to make tasty things with other animal products. Still, I like trying something new from time to time, and vegan is completely new to me. I can imagine you're wondering ‘what on earth you're supposed to eat then’, I wondered the same 😉

Equipment

  • Large bowl
  • scissors
  • wok or frying pan

Ingredients

  • 150 g (round) brown rice
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 150 g fresh shiitakes, sliced (or 50 g dried shiitakes, soak these for 8 hours in warm water)
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 avocado
  • 2 spring onions
  • 2 nori sheets
  • ½ cucumber
  • 10 radishes
  • 2 tbsp sushi ginger
  • 2 tbsp roasted sesame seeds

Vegan sushi bowl

1. Cook the rice according to the package instructions and drain it as soon as it's done. Meanwhile, cut the shiitakes into strips, the avocado into pieces, the spring onions into rings, the radishes into slices and the cucumber into cubes. Cut the nori sheets into 1 by 1 cm squares.

2. If you're using dried shiitakes, drain them now. Heat the sesame oil and fry the shiitakes for 1 minute. Add the soy sauce and fry for another minute. Now turn off the heat and let the shiitakes sit in the pan for a little while.

3. To make the dressing, mix all the ingredients in a small bowl. Set aside a few spring onion slices and shiitake strips to use as decoration. Take a nice serving bowl and mix all the ingredients except the sesame seeds together. Pour the dressing over the salad and mix well. Divide between two plates and garnish with the spring onions, shiitake and sesame seeds. Yum!

This sushi bowl is ideal when you want to put something tasty and healthy on the table quickly. The combination of savory shiitakes, creamy avocado and fresh vegetables creates a balanced meal that also looks beautiful.

Customize to your taste by adding extra vegetables, such as edamame or carrot sticks. Serve immediately after plating so the rice stays nice and warm and the avocado remains fresh.
