This is not your normal burger! It’s a sushi burger! Layers of avocado, cabbage, watercress and teriyaki tofu drizzled with a siracha mayonnaise and sandwiched between sushi rice! Just so fun to make and eat!
How to Make Sushi Burger:
- Make the sushi rice according to the instructions and then season with mirin and rice wine vinegar.
- Slightly wet your hands and shape the rice into two burger buns or use two bowls as moulds to set the shape of the buns
- Coat the tofu in a little cornflour to help it crisp when cooked.
- Make the teriyaki sauce by combining all the ingredients in a saucepan, bring to the boil and then let the sauce reduce until it coats the back of a spoon.
- Remove from the heat and then use a pastry brush to coat the sauce on the tofu.
- Cook the teriyaki tofu in a saucepan for a couple of minutes each side on a medium heat and then remove from the heat.
- Make the siracha mayonnaise by combining the two sauces together and slice the avocado and red cabbage finely
- Layer the burger by assembling all the ingredients together and enjoy!
