Mango, cucumber & tomato makis

Mango, cucumber & tomato makis
For: 2 serv.Difficulty: EasyPreparation: 20 minCooking: 30 min

Challenge accepted! I made my makis (all by myself) for the first time, and in the end, it's not rocket science! Really, it's not! The little tip I can give you is to follow the rice cooking steps closely! You can replace the filling with your favorite ingredients, like avocado (so good with mango, trust me!), radishes, smoked tofu, spinach sprouts... Anyway, it's up to you!

  • Start by cooking the rice: rinse the rice until the washing water is clear (yes, this can take a while...).
  • In a saucepan, pour 500 mL of water and the rice, bring to a boil for 3 minutes then cook on low heat for 13 minutes (the water should be completely absorbed. If needed, you can add a little more water if it's absorbed before the allotted time).
  • Stir the rice with a spatula to cool it down and add the sushi vinegar. Keep stirring, it should be completely cold.
  • For the garnish, peel the mango and cucumber, and cut them into strips. Quarter the tomatoes, remove the pulp, and slice the flesh into strips.
  • Place a sheet of nori on a mat. Wet your hands under water to dampen them, then take a handful of rice and spread it over 2/3 of the nori sheet. Lay strips of filling, alternating your ingredients at ¼ of the nori sheet.
  • Then, roll everything using the mat, making sure to tighten well!
  • And then cut into sections (about 5 for one nori sheet). Repeat the operation for the other sheets!
