These crispy sushi burgers turn sushi night into a fun, hands-on dinner, with seasoned rice, creamy fillings, and a golden, crunchy coating. They are playful yet satisfying, much like the Rice Cakes with Trout and Crab Stick Roll with Cheese. Cut them in half, add your favorite sauce, and watch them disappear fast.
Ingredients
- For 3 burgers: 400 g (2 cups) cooked rice
- 2 tbsp rice vinegar
- 6 nori sheets
- Sesame seeds, optional
- For the batter: 2 eggs
- 5 tbsp flour
- Breadcrumbs or cornflakes
- For the fillings (pick one): Cream cheese + avocado + trout
- Cream cheese + crab sticks + cucumber + chuka seaweed
- Cream cheese + baked chicken fillet + cucumber
Instructions
- Cook the rice and stir in the vinegar.
- Assemble each sushi burger with your chosen filling.
- Wrap in a second nori sheet.
- Wrap tightly in plastic so it holds together.
- Dredge: flour, then egg, then breadcrumbs.
- Fry on both sides until golden.
- Cut in half and add sauces: nut, soy, or teriyaki.
Tips
- Chill the wrapped burgers briefly so they slice cleanly and keep their shape while frying.
- Keep the oil hot but not smoking, so the coating turns golden without soaking up oil.
