Roll Your Own Sushi

Last week had been a rather warm week. Too warm for hot food I thought and it was quickly decided we shall have a nice cool dinner at home with a bit of fun - Roll Your Own Sushi dinner party! Oh well, not really a party but since we had fun so it was a party afterall.




Fresh scallops and fish roes

We had quite a bit to eat as we have prepared far too many food than our stomach can handle.

The best thing about Roll Your Own Sushi is that you get to be your very own creative sushi chef. My favourite combination for the night was asparagus with tamago-yaki lather with lots of Japanese mayonnaise wrapped in nori (seaweed). Not very creative but you get what I mean because it means that I do not have to even have sushi rice in my sushi!




fresh salmon sashimi, white fish sashimi with fresh wasabi

I had bought fresh wasabi from Kei's Kitchen at the Pyrmont Growers Market and the wasabi proves to be so much better than those that come in tube.


Scampies, Octopus, Prawns & Salmon Roes

Beside the fish, we also had quite a bit of crustacean seafood. It was a scrumptious night, full of indulgence. We did not stop eating until after 11pm, to think we still have desserts to finish off! It was indeed a long dinner or shall I say it was dinner together with supper.
