MAKES 8 SERVINGS

Ingredients:
2¾ ounces (80 grams) salmon
1 teaspoon spicy mayonnaise, plus more for serving
1⁄3 ounce (10 grams) takuan (pickled daikon)
1 thick egg omelet, sliced
1 asparagus spear, blanched
¼ cucumber, cut into very thin sticks
½ nori sheet
2⁄3 cup sushi rice
¼ avocado, finely sliced
¼ lemon
1 teaspoon orange ikura (salmon roe)
1 tablespoon finely chopped scallions
Wasabi paste, for serving
Gari (pickled ginger), for serving
Soy sauce, for serving

Method:
1. Chop 1 ounce of the salmon into small cubes. In a small bowl, mix it with the spicy mayonnaise.

 

2. Slice the takuan into very thin sticks (Figs. a-b). To control the
thickness of the slices, place toothpicks on either side of the takuan. Rest your knife on the toothpicks as you roll the takuan to cut it.

3. Arrange the egg omelet, asparagus, cucumber, takuan and salmon mixture on your work surface (Fig. c).

4. Cover a bamboo sushi mat with plastic wrap. Place the nori sheet on the mat and cover it evenly with rice. Flip over the nori sheet so that the rice is facing the mat. Arrange the egg omelet, asparagus, cucumber, and chopped salmon along the middle of the nori sheet (Fig. d).

5. Roll the sheet so that it is inside-out, and then arrange the avocado slices on top (Fig. e).

6. Slice the remaining 1¾ ounces of salmon and arrange it on top of the avocado.

7. Cut the roll in half and then cut each half into 4 even pieces. Using a cooking torch, lightly sear the salmon and then squeeze lemon on top.

8. Garnish each piece with orange ikura and chopped scallions. Serve with wasabi, gari and soy sauce.
