Homemade shrimp rolls

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 55 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make homemade shrimp rolls? Start with rice. Go over it.

2. STEP 2

   

   Then rinse, and so that the water after rinsing is clear.

3. STEP 3

   

   Pour water over the rice (so that it covers the top by 1.5-2 fingers). Once the water boils, reduce the heat and cook according to instructions. It took me 12 minutes. Finally, I covered the saucepan with a lid, turned off the heat and waited 10 minutes.

4. STEP 4

   

   If you have fresh shrimp, boil them. I had ice cream kings. I defrosted them in water so that they would be easy to clean later. Do not overexpose it in water!

5. STEP 5

   

   Then, having removed the shell, I removed the intestines (a thin cut must be made on the back of the shrimp and pulled out a thin thread) and threaded it onto skewers. This way the shrimp will be smoother when we pour boiling water over it and then place it on the rice.

6. STEP 6

   

   To make the shrimp have a piquant taste, I poured them with a boiling solution of lemon juice, salt and water (all to taste). Let it sit for a few minutes. Then drain this mixture and place the shrimp in a bowl without removing the skewers.

7. STEP 7

   

   Very quickly prepare a dressing from a teaspoon of boiling water, the same amount of sugar and rice vinegar. You can taste it and change the ratio of components. For example, I poured a little more water.

8. STEP 8

   

   Slice the cucumber and remove the skin. Let there be stripes like this.

9. STEP 9

   

   Chop the bell pepper for beauty and taste.

10. STEP 10

    

    That's all. Pour the dressing into the still hot rice. Stir. Let it cool.

11. STEP 11

    

    Cover the mat with film and place nori on it. Wet your hands with water (have a cup of water nearby) and spread a thin layer of rice. Just be sure to leave an empty strip of nori on the side farthest from you (1.5-2 cm).

12. STEP 12

    

    Place shrimp, cucumber and pepper along the entire width of the nori on the rice.

13. STEP 13

    

    Lubricate the roll filling with mayonnaise on top.

14. STEP 14

    

    All we have to do is roll the roll. But even now you can’t cut it. Let it lie there and compact it.

15. STEP 15

    

    After about 10 minutes, cut the roll with a sharp knife. And serve.
