Maki Sushi Recipe – Vegan Sushi Recipe – How To Make Vegetarian Maki Sushi

Prep: 30 mins – Cook: 20 mins – Total: 50 mins

INGREDIENTS

  • 4 cups sushi rice

Filling options (you can of course use other fillings of your choice, these are basic ones):

  • Persian or Kirby cucumber, cut into 1/2-inch long strips
  • Takuan (pickled daikon radish), cut into 1/2-inch long strips
  • Avocado, pitted, cut into 1/2-inch long strips
  • Cooked sweet potato (don’t overcook it to the point where it’s mushy), cut into 1/2-inch long strips.
  • Natto (1 box)
  • Sashimi grade tuna, salmon, or yellowtail (about 5 oz for 8 rolls), cut into 1/2-inch long strips

Other:

  • 4 nori sheets
  • Soy sauce, for dipping
  • Wasabi (optional)
  • Pickled ginger (optional)

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Place the bamboo mat on a flat surface, facing you (you will be rolling the mat away from you). Fill a small bowl with 1/2 cup tepid water and 1 tablespoon rice vinegar. Place it next to the bamboo mat.
  2. Slice the nori sheets in half, lengthwise, and place on a plate next to the bamboo mat.
  3. Grab a nori sheet and place it on the bamboo mat’s edge closer to you, lengthwise, leaving 1” of bamboo space visible, shiny face down.
  4. Dip your fingers in the dipping bowl and moisten your hands. Grab 1/2 cup of sushi rice (using a measurement cup is the easiest to measure the rice) and place it on the nori sheet. Don’t overfill the cup or press the rice down, just scoop the rice as you normally would scoop any other grain.
  5. Spread the rice evenly across the sheet, leaving 1” of space free at the top of the nori sheet.
  6. Place the filling in the center of the rice, across lengthwise. Grab the bottom edges of the mat with your thumbs while holding on to the toppings with your other fingers. Roll it into a tight cylinder, tucking the fillings in firmly.
  7. Roll it forward while using a little pressure but not so much that the filling spills out. Let go of the mat when you get to the other end.
  8. Wipe a kitchen knife with vinegar water and evenly cut the roll into bite size pieces.
  9. Serve with soy sauce, wasabi, and pickled ginger on the side.

Stuffed Roasted Butternut Squash Recipe

Prep: 30 mins – Cook: 90 mins – Total: 120 mins

Ingredients

For the butternut squash:

  • 1 butternut squash
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

For the stuffing:

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 carrots, peeled and chopped
  • 2 ribs celery, chopped
  • 1 yellow onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup wild rice
  • 2 cups vegetable broth
  • 1/2 cup white rice (I used basmati)
  • 1/2 cup walnuts, chopped
  • 1/2 cup dried cranberries
  • 1 teaspoon fresh sage, chopped
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 recipe Quick Onion Gravy (optional for serving)

Directions

  • Preheat your oven to 350F (180C).
  • To make the butternut squash: Cut the butternut squash in half lengthwise. Scoop out and discard the seeds, then put both halves on a baking tray, cut side up. Drizzle the olive oil on top of each squash and rub around to coat. Bake for 60 to 75 minutes until the squash is cooked and fork tender. The timing may vary a bit depending on the size of your squash. Be careful not to overcook the squash as it will still bake more when assembled and heated later on.
  • Once baked, remove the squash from the oven. Let it cool enough so that you can handle it. Scoop out the flesh in the center of both squash halves, leaving about a 1-inch border all around. I like to score a line with the tip of my spoon 1-inch from the edges before I start scooping so I have a guide to follow. Set aside the scooped out squash flesh and chop it up.
  • To make the stuffing: In the meantime when the squash is baking, you can prepare the stuffing. In a large pan, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. When hot sauté the carrots, celery, onion, and garlic until the veggies soften and begin to brown. Add the wild rice and veggie broth to the pan, give it a stir, then cover and bring to a simmer. Cook for 10 minutes. Now add the white rice to the pan, cover, and continue to cook another 8 to 10 minutes until the rice has cooked and fully absorbed the broth.
  • Add in the walnuts, dried cranberries, sage, thyme, salt, and pepper. When ready, add in the scooped out and chopped squash flesh. Stir well to combine.
  • To stuff the squash: Pack in as much of the stuffing into both sides of the squash as you can. You will likely have leftovers, but I like to pack it in nice and firmly and make both sides heaping full. Pick up one squash half and flip it on top of the other. Use kitchen string to tie up the squash in 3 or 4 places holding it together. At this point you can choose to let it cool, cover with foil and store in the fridge for up to 3 days until ready to bake. Or you can bake it right away.
  • When you are ready to bake, lightly brush the top with more olive oil. Bake for 20 to 35 minutes until hot all the way through. Season the top with cracked pepper, and a sprinkle of chopped sage. The slices are tender and will easily fall apart, to help hold them together use a wide spatula, and carefully transfer them to the plate. Serve hot with Quick Onion Gravy.
