Description

RECOMMENDED EQUIPMENT

  • sharp knife
  • cutting board
  • garlic press
  • oven-safe pan
  • large plate

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 puff pastry dough
  • 4 big tomatoes
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 1/2 tsp dried thyme
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • salt & pepper to taste
  • 1 tsp fresh thyme
  • 30 grams parmesan

Instructions

  1. Take the puff pastry out of the fridge. Set aside.
  2. Preheat the oven to 220°C (428°F).
  3. Wash the tomatoes and slice them finely from the bottom. Peel and finely chop or press the garlic and mix it into a small bowl with 1-2 tablespoons of olive oil. Set everything aside.
  4. Roll out the puff pastry and place the oven-safe pan on top. Trace a circle around the pan and cut out the puff pastry accordingly. Set the pastry circle aside. Don’t discard the remaining pastry. You can either make a second layer of pastry for the Tarte Tatin or cut it into squares, place a cube of feta in the middle, wrap it up, and bake until golden brown in the oven. Topped with a bit of honey, thyme, and salt, you quickly create a simple snack 🙂
  5. Heat the pan and briefly sauté honey, olive oil, dried thyme, and salt until bubbles form. Then distribute the tomato slices in the pan, brush them with the garlic oil, and let them caramelize for about 1-2 minutes. Remove from the heat, top with freshly ground pepper, and lay the puff pastry circle on top. Tuck the edges slightly inward and press firmly. Prick a few holes in the pastry with a fork.
  6. Bake the pan in the oven on the bottom rack uncovered for about 25 minutes.
  7. In the meantime, coarsely grate or slice the Parmesan and pluck the fresh thyme leaves from their stems. Set aside.
  8. Remove the pan from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Then place a plate larger than the pan over the pan and quickly invert to turn out the Tarte Tatin onto the plate.
  9. Top the Tarte Tatin with Parmesan, fresh thyme, and pepper, and serve immediately. Enjoy your piece of happiness!

ABOUT THE RECIPE

Imagine if your favorite spicy tuna roll and a sizzling tempura dish had a delicious rendezvous. Sounds intriguing, right? Well, let me introduce you to Crispy Spicy Salmon Sushi Rolls. They’re bursting with the bold flavors of traditional sushi but transformed into a delightful fried sensation. Wrapped in a light, crispy coating with a kick of spicy salmon nestled inside, you’ve just discovered your new favorite dish. Perfect for any gathering or a tantalizing meal at home!

How to serve
Serve these deep-fried spicy salmon rolls hot and crispy. Cut each roll into six even pieces for easy sharing. Drizzle them generously with the two sauces – a spicy mayo-Sriracha sauce and a sweet and savory soy-mirin sauce. For the final touch, sprinkle sesame seeds and thinly sliced spring onions over the top for a beautiful contrast in color and a burst of freshness. These rolls are packed with flavor, but if you enjoy a bit more heat, they also pair wonderfully with a dab of wasabi. This delightful combination of textures and tastes makes them a standout dish at any gathering.

How to store
Due to their crispy nature, it’s best to enjoy these spicy salmon rolls fresh. Once fried, they tend to lose their crunchiness if stored, so they are not recommended for later consumption. However, if you find yourself with leftovers, you can briefly re-fry them to bring back some of the crispiness. But really, these rolls are so delicious, consider it the perfect excuse to indulge and enjoy them all in one sitting!

Spicy Salmon Baked Sushi Rolls


  • Author: Kimberly
  • Total Time: 75 min
  • Yield: 4 1x

Description

RECOMMENDED EQUIPMENT

  • sharp knife
  • cutting board
  • rice cooker (or pot)
  • three small pots (or one that you wash twice)
  • two small bowls
  • squeeze bottles (or tablespoons)
  • two medium-sized bowls
  • bamboo rolling mat (called Makisu)
  • plastic wrap
  • large bowl
  • whisk
  • drinking glass
  • two flat dishes
  • two forks
  • foam spoon

Ingredients

Units Scale

SUSHI RICE

  • 150 grams sushi rice
  • 2 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tbsp white sugar
  • 1/2 tsp salt

LIGHT SAUCE

  • 50 grams mayonnaise
  • 10 grams Sriracha (or any other hot sauce you like)

DARK SAUCE

  • 50 grams soy sauce
  • 50 grams Mirin
  • 50 grams white sugar

TEMPURA BATTER

  • 100 grams all-purpose flour
  • 100 grams corn starch (or potato starch)
  • 1 egg
  • 100 milliliters ice-cold water
  • 1/2 tsp salt

FILLING

  • 150 grams salmon filet
  • 2 tbsp Sriracha (or any other hot sauce you like)

OTHER INGREDIENTS

  • 2 full-sized Nori sheets
  • 70 grams Panko (or regular bread crumbs)
  • 500 milliliters deep-frying fat (depending on your pot)
  • sesame seeds
  • spring onions

Instructions

  1. Let’s start with the sushi rice: Wash the rice under cold water until the water runs clear. This is important as it removes all the starch and prevents the rice from becoming mushy. Now, place the rice in a rice cooker or pot and add 400ml (1 + 2/3 cup) of water. I use a little less than 1:1.5 ratio rice to water, as there’s still water left on the rice from washing. Let the rice cook.
  2. To get that authentic sushi flavor, the rice will be soaked in a sauce. For this, heat rice vinegar, sugar, and salt in a small pot until the sugar and salt have dissolved. Set aside to cool. As it cools, the sauce will thicken slightly.
  3. Now, let’s prepare the salmon filling. Rinse the salmon under cold water, dry it, then chop it into rough cubes. In a bowl, mix it with Sriracha, and it’s ready. Keep the salmon chilled until use.
  4. By now, the rice should be cooked. Transfer it to a medium-sized bowl and pour over the rice vinegar-sugar-salt sauce. Mix everything until the sauce is distributed and absorbed by the rice. Let the rice cool completely.
  5. Meanwhile, prepare the topping sauces. For the light sauce, simply mix mayonnaise and Sriracha, thinning it with a bit of water to make it easier to spread. For the dark sauce, heat soy sauce, Mirin, and sugar in a small pan or pot until the sugar dissolves. Set aside to cool. Once the sauce is cold, it will thicken a bit. I like to pour the sauces into squeeze bottles, but you can also spoon them over the sushi later or use them for dipping. Keep the sauces chilled until use.
  6. In the meantime, you can prepare your work surface. Take a bamboo rolling mat, also known as Makisu, and wrap it on both sides with a layer of plastic wrap. Press the ends well onto the mat. Then fill a medium-sized bowl with a little water, as you’ll need it for your fingers to prevent the rice from sticking to them. Then you’ll need a cutting board and a sharp knife to halve the rolls. Finally, halve your Nori sheets and set them aside.
  7. Once the rice is cold, you can start rolling. Place the Makisu with the sticks horizontally in front of you. Place a Nori sheet with the shiny, smooth side down on the bamboo mat. Dip your fingers in the water and take about 1 heaped tablespoon of rice, spreading it with your fingers on the Nori sheet. It takes a bit of practice to handle the rice, but just take your time and moisten your fingers again if it becomes difficult to spread the rice. I press and push it in the direction I want it. I leave about 1/2-1cm (0.2″-0.4″) free at the top edge of the Nori sheet. When the rice is evenly distributed, turn the Nori sheet over so that the rice side is now facing down. Place a strip of the salmon filling in the center of the Nori sheet, a bit more than a finger thick. Now roll the Nori sheet so that the bottom end lands directly over the salmon filling. Then press everything tightly from the outside, then close the roll with a twist and press again. Take the finished sushi roll and halve it on the cutting board. Proceed the same way with the other rolls and set them aside.
  8. Now prepare the tempura batter. Mix flour, cornstarch, and salt in a large bowl. In a glass, stir the egg and ice-cold water starting with 100ml (3.5 oz) of water, and pour it into the dry ingredients. Quickly whisk everything until it’s creamy. If the batter is too thick, add 1 tablespoon of water and stir. We aim for a creamy-thick consistency. Better too thick than too thin, so really only adjust the water carefully. It also depends on how much liquid the egg brings. Pour the batter into a flat dish. Do the same with the Panko.
  9. Now you can bread the rolls. Take two forks and place the first roll in the tempura batter, distributing the batter over the entire roll. You can also gently turn it. Lift it up and let the excess batter drip off. Now place the roll directly into the Panko and press it onto the roll with the forks. You should now have a compact roll where the batter adheres well and nothing drips. Bread the rolls one by one and set aside.
  10. Now heat the frying oil to 190°C/375°F in a small, deep pot. Make sure to use enough oil so that the rolls can be completely submerged. I used solid vegetable fat in block form. Once the temperature is reached, place two rolls at a time into the oil. Be careful as the oil may bubble when the rolls are added. It’s best to use a foam spoon for this. The temperature will then drop to about 175°C/347°F. Fry the rolls in the oil for a total of 5 minutes. Each roll only absorbs about 10g (1/3 oz) of fat. I weighed the fat before and after 😀 This is because the fat is hot enough to instantly seal the crust. That’s why it’s also important to bring the fat to the right temperature. If the fat is too cold, the roll absorbs more fat and becomes soggy and not crispy.
  11. When the rolls are done frying, remove them from the fat and let them drain on a rack and cool slightly. Cut the rolls into 6 pieces each and arrange them on a plate. Next, drizzle the light and dark sauces over the rolls in a zigzag direction. Finally, you can sprinkle some sesame and finely chopped spring onions as a topping.

    COOKING

    1. Heat the butter with the truffle oil in a large pan. Sauté the finely chopped shallots over a medium heat for approx. 3 minutes until translucent.

    2. Now add the chopped mushrooms. Allow to brown for a few minutes so that the mushrooms turn golden brown. Add the peeled garlic cloves as whole and one to two stalks of fresh thyme and sauté for 1-2 minutes. Then deglaze with white wine and let it boil for about five minutes on a medium heat, then stir.

    3. Now add the hot chicken stock and cook over a medium heat until only 1/3 is left. This will take about 15 minutes.

    4. In the meantime, cook the pasta in a pan in boiling salted water until al dente.

    5. Now add the mascarpone to the sauce, stir and heat gently. Remove the garlic clove and thyme from the pan. Now add the chopped truffle. Stir well and remove the pan from the heat. Add 1 tbsp of butter to the sauce. Truffle butter is best for this, but normal butter will also work. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

    6. Add the pasta to the sauce in the pan. Stir well. Now add the grated Parmesan and approx. 150 ml of the pasta cooking water to the pan and stir everything until creamy using tongs. This may take a few minutes. Now serve on deep plates. Top with truffle oil and a few mushrooms.
