Home economics: Vegetarian Sushi

Vegetarian Sushi:

Teamwork aspects:Every person in my group each was assigned a certain job, for example, Mine and Chloe's job was separating the rice evenly into 4 plates. The boys were assigned to getting all of the ingredients and also the dishes. We all had the initiative to do stuff, and help each other out.

Skills:
- We all knew what we were doing
- We all listened to the teacher and watched carefully what she was demonstrating

- We washed and dried our dishes when we had spare time

Improvements:I think our group could improve on getting our equipment a lot faster, and getting right into it as well. Overall our group is doing really well.

Ingredients/Method:

- 4-5 nori sheets

- 2 cups of sushi rice

- 1 red pepper, julienned

- 1 avocado, sliced

- 1 carrot, julienned

- 4 tbsp rice vinegar

- wasabi

STEP 1: Wrap your sushi mat (bamboo mat or folded kitchen towel) in a large piece of cling film. Put the mat down, put a nori sheet on top of the mat, shiny side up. Grab some rice with your hands and spread it evenly on the nori sheet leaving 1 cm margin at the very top. As well as spreading the rice evenly, keep on pressing it into the mat. Keep a bowl with water handy so that you can clean your fingers if they get too sticky.

STEP 2: Stack vegetables at the bottom of the sheet. Be careful not to overfill the roll.

STEP 3: Using the mat, slowly start rolling the roll squeezing it tightly with both hands as your roll. Go back every now and then to make sure everything is tightly bonded.

STEP 4: Once you get to the end, dip your finger in water and brush the water on the margin to seal the roll. Finish rolling and set the roll aside. Repeat the last 4 steps with the remaining nori sheets.
