Rainbow Sushi Burrito
Sushi + a burrito? Yesss please! Two of my favorite things combined into one. Basically, this is lazy sushi that almost anyone could make! You’ll need a sushi roller mat but you can find one easily at any home goods, world market, or store like target for just a few dollars! This is one of those low key kitchen must haves that I love having on hand.
In this recipe, there’s marinated blanched tomatoes that make the perfect tuna like replacement. If you’re short on time you can skip this but trust me when I say you’ll want to make these!
Makes 2 sushi burritos:
The Goods:
For The vegan Tuna:
2 large tomatoes
1/4 cup coconut aminos
2 tbsp sesame oil
1 tbsp hot sauce
2 tbsp rice vinegar
For the burrito:
2 nori wraps
2 cups cooked brown rice
1 tbsp agave
2 tbsp rice wine vinegar
1 purple sweet potato, steamed
1 carrot, shredded
1 mango, peeled and sliced
1 avocado, sliced
2 green onions, sliced
The Method:
Grab a small pot of water and bring to a boil and also grab a bowl and fill with ice and water for an ice bath. Set aside.
While the water is boiling, core your tomato from the top in four spots and then pop it in the water for 2-3 minutes until you start to see the skin peel off.
With a slotted spoon, remove your tomato from the boiling water and add it to the ice bath to cool immediately.
Once cool, carefully remove the skin. Cut the entire tomato in half and remove the inside with the seeds so all that’s left is the meaty shell part of the tomato. Slice into 1 inch slices and place in a bowl.
In a mason jar, add the rest of the ingredients for the “tuna” and mix well. Pour this marinade over your tomato and marinate for 30 minutes.
Cook your rice to package instructions. Once it’s cooked, drizzle in the agave, rice vinegar and sesame seeds over the top and mix with a fork, let cool. Set aside.
Put your nori wrap shiny side up on your sushi roller. Evenly add a generous portion of rice leaving about 1 inch free on each side.
Place your “tuna”, shredded carrots, mango, avocado, green onion and steamed purple tomato evenly on the top of the rice covering it.
Dust a bit of water on the seaweed edge furthest from you.
Roll up the burrito using the sushi roller to give you some help!
Seal it, and enjoy immediately!
