Ingredients
– 1/2 cup vegetable oil
– 2 rice paper sheets
– 300 grams sushi-quality salmon filet
– 1 avocado
– 1 spring onion
– 2 teaspoons rice vinegar for the dressing
– 4 teaspoons mirin (or dry sherry) for the dressing
– 4 teaspoons light soy sauce for the dressing
– 2 teaspoons sesame oil for the dressing
– Toasted sesame seeds for sprinkling
– Furikake or chili flakes for serving (optional)
Instructions
1-: Begin by prepping your ingredients to ensure everything flows smoothly in the kitchen.
2-: First, cut each rice paper sheet into 6 pieces and heat about 0.5 cm of vegetable oil in a frying pan.
3-: Fry each rice paper piece until crisp, pressing the middle to form cup shapes, then drain on kitchen paper.
4-: Next, freeze the salmon filet for at least 30 minutes to firm it before dicing into 0.5 cm cubes.
5-: Finely chop the spring onion and cut the avocado into 0.5 cm cubes.
6-: Combine avocado, spring onion, and salmon in a bowl, cover, and refrigerate until serving.
7-: Mix the dressing ingredients and stir into the salmon mixture before serving.
8-: Serve rice paper cups and filling separately for guests to assemble, keeping the cups crispy.
9-: Optionally sprinkle with furikake or chili flakes.
10-: Throughout preparation, adapt fillings or cooking methods to accommodate dietary needs.
11-: Prepare all ingredients by chopping vegetables, choosing your protein, and readying fresh herbs for filling to ensure a smooth cooking process.
12-: Soften rice paper sheets by quickly dipping them in warm water; avoid overheating to maintain crispiness.
13-: Shape each softened rice paper into a cup form by placing it into a muffin tin or shaping by hand.
14-: Fill each rice paper cup with your chosen protein and vegetable mixture, pressing gently to secure.
15-: Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan over medium heat and carefully fry the rice paper cups until golden and crisp, about 2-3 minutes per side.
16-: Drain the crispy cups on paper towels to remove excess oil.
17-: Finally, garnish with chopped herbs or a dipping sauce of choice and serve immediately for the best texture.
