Yield Makes 36 hors d'oeuvres

Number Of Ingredients 9

3/4 pound boiling potatoes (about 2 medium)
1 teaspoon vegetable oil
2 teaspoons mustard seeds (preferably black)
1/2 teaspoon curry powder
1/4 cup nonfat plain yogurt
1 tablespoon minced fresh flat-leafed parsley leaves
1/2 small cucumber (about 3 ounces)
4 1/2 ounces smoked salmon
6 8- by 7 1/2-inch sheets toasted nori (dried laver)

Steps:

  • Peel potatoes and cut into 1/2-inch cubes. In a large heavy saucepan cover potatoes with salted water by 1 inch and bring to a boil. Simmer potatoes until tender, about 5 minutes. Drain potatoes in a colander and cool slightly.While potatoes are cooling, in a small non-stick skillet heat oil over moderate heat until hot but not smoking and cook mustard seeds and curry powder until seeds begin to pop.
  • In a bowl combine warm potatoes, mustard-seed mixture, yogurt, parsley, and salt and pepper to taste and with a potato masher mash potatoes until almost smooth.
  • Peel and seed cucumber and cut into matchstick-thin strips. Cut salmon into 1/4-inch-wide strips. Put a sushi mat on a work surface with bamboo strips of mat parallel to front of work surface. On mat arrange 1 nori piece, shiny side down and with a long side lined up with near edge of mat, and spread 1/3 cup potato mixture evenly in a 2 1/2-inch-wide strip along near edge. Arrange one sixth of salmon and cucumber in a line along center of potato mixture and dampen far edge of nori with a moistened finger. Beginning with long side near you, roll up nori tightly, using mat as an aid to help tighten roll. Seal dampened edge and with a sharp knife cut roll crosswise into 6 pieces. Make 5 more rolls in same manner.

Categories     Sandwich     Fish     Appetizer

Number Of Ingredients 16

8 sheets of nori

1 cup Edamame Wasabi Spread*
8 pieces (4 ounces) of smoked wild salmon, spritzed with lime juice
1 English cucumber, thinly sliced lengthwise into 16 pieces

1 large red bell pepper, thinly sliced lengthwise into 16 pieces

2 avocados, thinly sliced lengthwise into 16 pieces
24 fresh mint leaves
24 fresh cilantro leaves
*Edamame Wasabi Spread:
1 cup fresh or frozen shelled edamame, mixed with a spritz of lime juice and a pinch of salt
1/4 cup water
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice

1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro or parsley

2 teaspoons wasabi powder mixed with 1 teaspoon water, or 2 teaspoons wasabi paste
1/2 teaspoon sea salt

Steps:

  • Prepare Edamame Wasabi Spread: Put the edamame, sea salt, water, olive oil, lime juice, cilantro and wasabi paste in a food processor and process until smooth. Taste. You may want to add another squeeze of lime juice, a pinch of salt or if you really like some heat, add another 1/4 teaspoon of wasabi. Instructions for the nori rolls: Place a sheet of nori on a work surface with the rough side facing up. Carefully spread 2 tablespoons of the edamame wasabi mixture over the nori, leaving 1 1/2 inches bare along the bottom edge of the nori (the edge facing you) and 1/2 inch bare along the top edge. Place 1 piece of the salmon, 2 slices of cucumber, 2 slices of bell pepper, and 2 slices of avocado about 1 1/2 inches from the bottom edge. Top with 3 mint leaves and 3 cilantro leaves. Starting with the bare edge, roll the nori around the fillings, pressing gently to make a compact roll. Moisten a finger with warm water and run it along the inside edge of the flap that remains at the top of the roll, then press the moistened edge against the roll to seal. Repeat with the remaining ingredients. Cut each roll into eight pieces using a sharp serrated knife. Variations: For a vegetarian nori roll, substitute thinly sliced tofu for the salmon (use baked tofu for better fla-vor and texture). Prep Time: 20 minutes Storage: Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to
 one day.


Tips:

  • Make sure to choose high-quality smoked salmon that is firm and has a rich, smoky flavor.
  • If you don't have a bamboo rolling mat, you can use a piece of plastic wrap instead.
  • To make the rolls easier to cut, chill them in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before slicing.
  • Serve the rolls with your favorite dipping sauce, such as soy sauce, wasabi, or ponzu sauce.

Conclusion:
