Alright, alright, let’s talk about this… uh… Mexican roll sushi thing, ya know? My grandkid showed me a picture, looked kinda fancy, but I figured, hey, food is food, right? So, let me tell ya how I see it, how I’d make somethin’ like that, even though I ain’t never made no fancy sushi before. Don’t expect no chef talk from me, I just cook the way I cook, simple and good.
First off, they say you need some kinda seaweed paper, nori they call it. But honestly, who has that layin’ around? My friend, she uses this green pancake thing, spinach crepe she calls it. Sounds fancy, but it’s just eggs and spinach all mixed up and fried thin, like a thin pancake. That sounds more like somethin’ I can do. So, yeah, we’ll use that instead. Way I see it, food’s about makin’ do with what ya got, not runnin’ to the store for every little thing.
Now, for the stuffin’. This Mexican roll thing, it’s gotta have some kick, right? So, we need shrimp. But not just any shrimp, fried shrimp. You know, the crispy kind. I’d dip ‘em in some egg and flour, fry ‘em up real good. And then, this crab meat stuff, kani they call it, they fry that too! Everything’s better fried, ain’t it? Gives it that good crunch.
Then, the veggies. Cucumber, yeah, that’s good. Nice and cool. And avocado, the green creamy stuff. My grandkids love that. They mash it up on toast, call it avocado toast, like it’s some big invention. Kids these days! But yeah, avocado, cucumber, that goes in. And some cream cheese too, gotta make it rich and smooth.
Okay, so we got our spinach pancake, our fried shrimp, fried crab meat, cucumber, avocado, and cream cheese. Now, the tricky part, rollin’ it up. I ain’t got no fancy bamboo mat thingy. But I got a dish towel, clean one of course. I’ll lay that down, put the spinach pancake on it, spread the stuffin’ all over it, not too much, not too little, and then roll it up tight, like a burrito, but smaller. See? No need for fancy tools. Just gotta use your head.
- Fried shrimp
- Fried kani (crab meat)
- Cucumber
- Avocado
- Cream cheese
- Spinach crepe (instead of nori)
Now, for the sauces. They put all sorts of fancy sauces on this Mexican roll thing. Spicy mayo, eel sauce, somethin’ called masago, which looks like little orange fish eggs to me, and crispy onions on top. Alright, spicy mayo, I can do that. Just mix some mayo with hot sauce, easy peasy. Eel sauce, well, I ain’t got no eel, so we’ll skip that. And them fish eggs? Nah, I don’t think so. But crispy onions, yeah, I can fry up some onions, make ‘em nice and crispy, sprinkle ‘em on top. That’ll give it a good crunch and flavor. You gotta have crunch, makes it more fun to eat.
So, there ya have it. My version of a Mexican roll sushi. It ain’t fancy, but I bet it tastes good. It’s got fried shrimp, fried crab, creamy avocado, cool cucumber, and a little kick from the spicy mayo. And crispy onions on top, gotta have the crispy onions. It’s like a mix of different things, all rolled up into one bite. My grandkids would probably love it, even though it ain’t exactly like the picture. But that’s the thing about cooking, ain’t it? You make it your own, you use what you got, and you make it taste good. And that’s all that matters, right?
One last thing, don’t be afraid to try new things in the kitchen. Even if you don’t have all the fancy ingredients or tools, you can still make something delicious. Just use your imagination and your common sense, and you’ll be surprised at what you can come up with. And most importantly, have fun with it! Cooking should be enjoyable, not stressful. So go ahead, get in the kitchen and make something good, even if it’s a little bit different from what everyone else is making.
