Chakin Sushi Rolls

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Chakin Sushi Rolls.

1. Step 1

   Start by bringing water to a boil in a saucepan. Once boiling, add the sushi rice and give it a gentle stir. Lower the heat, cover the pot, and let it simmer for about 20 minutes. When the rice is cooked, transfer it to a large bowl and let it cool until it's comfortable to handle.

2. Step 2

   While the rice is cooling, whisk together the eggs with 1/4 teaspoon of salt in a bowl. Heat a skillet over medium heat and brush the bottom with vegetable oil. Pour in a sixth of the egg mixture, swirling it to cover the pan evenly. Cook until the egg is just set, then carefully flip it to cook the other side for a few seconds. Repeat this process with the remaining egg mixture to create six thin sheets of cooked egg.

3. Step 3

   In a small bowl, mix the rice vinegar, sugar, and 1 teaspoon of salt. Microwave this mixture for a few seconds until it's warm, then stir until the sugar dissolves completely. Gently fold this sweet vinegar mixture and the black sesame seeds into the warm rice, ensuring it's well combined.

4. Step 4

   Now comes the fun part! Take a generous spoonful of the seasoned rice and place it in the center of each egg sheet. Fold the edges of the egg over the rice to create a neat square, and secure it with a sprig of Italian parsley. This not only holds everything together but adds a lovely touch of color and flavor.
