Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 tablespoon canola oil, plus additional for deep-frying
3 cups sliced onions
1/2 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
1/2 tablespoon chopped fresh sage
1/2 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary
Salt and freshly ground white pepper
1 cup mirin (Japanese sweet sake)
4 toasted nori sheets
4 salmon fillets, about 4 ounces each, lightly pounded to 1/4-inch thick
2 cups rice flour
4 cups club soda
Wasabi Soy-Honey Dipping sauce, recipe follows
1/2 cup soy sauce
1/3 cup rice wine vinegar
1 tablespoon wasabi powder
1/3 cup honey
1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil

Steps:

  • Heat a large skillet or wok over medium heat. Add the 1-tablespoon of oil and swirl to coat the pan. When the oil shimmers, add the onions and saute, stirring occasionally, until soft and browned, 6 to 8 minutes. Mix in the thyme, sage, and rosemary and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Add the mirin, and cook to evaporate the liquid, about 6 minutes. Cool.
  • Arrange a sheet of the nori, shiny side down, on a rolling mat. Have a small bowl of water handy. Place a salmon fillet on the bottom half of the nori sheet and season with salt and pepper. Arrange 1/4 of the onions on the upper 1/3 of the salmon. Roll, wet the edge, and press the mat to seal. Repeat with the remaining nori, salmon, and onions. Allow the maki to rest, seam side down, for 2 minutes.
  • Fill a fryer or heavy medium pot 1/3 full with the oil and heat over high heat to 425 degrees F. Place the flour in a medium bowl and slowly whisk in the club soda until the mixture resembles a light pancake batter. Dip the rolls in the batter and fry all at once, turning as necessary, until golden, 4 to 6 minutes. Remove the rolls with a mesh spoon and drain on paper towels. Season, to taste, with the salt and pepper.
  • With a sharp knife, slice each maki in half. Cut one piece straight across into 3 pieces and cut the other piece diagonally into 2 pieces. Serve with dipping sauce.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the soy sauce, vinegar, wasabi, honey, and sesame oil. Stir to blend.

I would recommend serving this dish with a side of pickled ginger and daikon radish. It helps to cleanse the palate between bites.

The wasabi soy honey dipping sauce is a great way to add some extra flavor to the roll. It's also a good way to adjust the spiciness of the dish.

I had some leftover tempura batter, so I used it to make some onion rings. They were a hit with my family!

I'm not usually a fan of sushi, but this recipe changed my mind. The tempura-fried salmon was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the herbed onion filling was flavorful and aromatic.
