Print Recipe

A delightful fusion of crispy tempura shrimp and creamy cheese, wrapped in seasoned sushi rice and nori, perfect for any occasion.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups sushi rice
  • 4 large shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 1/2 cup tempura batter mix
  • 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 4 sheets nori
  • 1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
  • 1 teaspoon chopped dill
  • 1 tablespoon chopped parsley
  • 1/4 cup eel sauce
  • 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
  • Vegetable oil for frying
  • Optional: Sliced avocado, julienned cucumber, spicy mayo

Instructions

  1. Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Cook according to package instructions and toss with rice vinegar, sugar, and salt.
  2. Prepare the tempura batter and coat each shrimp. Heat vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C) and fry for 2-3 minutes until golden brown. Drain on paper towels.
  3. On a bamboo mat, place nori shiny side down and spread sushi rice evenly, leaving a 1-inch strip at the top. Layer cream cheese, crispy shrimp, and any optional vegetables in the center.
  4. Roll the sushi away from you while applying gentle pressure, sealing the edge of the nori with water.
  5. For added crunch, coat the roll with tempura batter and panko before frying briefly. Drain on paper towels.
  6. Slice the roll into 6-8 pieces, drizzle with eel sauce and mayonnaise, and garnish with parsley.

Notes

Use fresh, high-quality shrimp and vegetables for the best flavor. Customize your fillings if desired.
