California Rolls

Ingredients
(Recipe originally from here / slightly adapted)

Serves: 8

Rice
1 cup uncooked short grain white rice
1 cup (250ml) water
1/4 cup (60ml) rice vinegar
1 tablespoon white sugar

6 x Dyna-Sea brand immitation "crab" sticks (Kosher)
1/4 cup mayonnaise
8 sheets nori (dry seaweed)
1 cucumber, cut into thin strips
2 avocados, pitted, peeled and sliced the long way
Wasabi
Pickled ginger

Directions

Preparation:45min  ›  Cook:15min  ›  Ready in:1hour

Rice: Wash the rice in several changes of water until the rinse water is no longer cloudy, drain well and place in a covered saucepan or rice cooker with water. Bring to a boil then reduce heat to a simmer and cover the saucepan. Allow the rice to simmer until the top looks dry; about 15 minutes. Turn off the heat and let stand for 10 minutes to absorb the rest of the water. Alternatively, you can use a rice cooker.

Mix the rice vinegar and sugar in a small bowl until the sugar has dissolved then stir the mixture into the cooked rice until well combined. Allow the rice to cool then set aside. To speed up the process, place the rice in the freezer. For faster cooling, spread the rice against the sides of the bowls for even distribution.

Roll:
Roll the sushi cover a bamboo rolling mat with plastic wrap. Lay a sheet of nori, shiny side down on the plastic wrap. With wet fingers firmly pat a thin even layer of prepared rice over the nori, leaving 6mm uncovered at the bottom edge of the sheet. Sprinkle the rice with about 1/2 teaspoon of sesame seeds and gently press them into the rice. Carefully flip the nori sheet over so the seaweed side is up.
Making an horizontal indent across the first quarter of the rice, spread the mayonaise and the wasabi across it. Following this, place 2 or 3 long cucumber spears, 2 or 3 slices of avocado and about 1 tablespoon of crab sticks in a line across the nori sheet about 6mm from the uncovered edge.

Pick up the edge of the bamboo rolling sheet then fold the bottom edge of the sheet up, enclosing the filling and tightly roll the sushi into a cylinder about 4cm in diameter.
Once the sushi is rolled wrap it in the mat and gently squeeze to compact it tightly.
Cut each roll into 2cm pieces with a very sharp knife dipped in water.

Shuk HaCarmel (Carmel Market, Tel Aviv)

It is perhaps unfair that Shuk HaCarmel doesn't have the same level of 'street cred' as Machane Yehuda in Jerusalem. Walking down one of its main thoroughfares, I found several shops selling different kinds of 'mini vegetables'. From here, I went and sampled the various types of cheeses on offer. I was like a kid in a candy (or cheese) store. While people living in Israel take having kosher products almost everywhere, it is a novelty for someone like me, living in the diaspora to be able to enter stores that only sells kosher cheese!

Salmon And Mushroom Pie with Parmesan Crust And Pickled Chili Salad

Ingredients
Pie:
2 X Large baked salmon fillets - could be leftovers
1 X Can chopped mushrooms
1/2 Red/spanish onion - thinly sliced
1 1/2 Cup of milk
1/4 Cup of flour
1 X Tsp chopped garlic
1/4 Cup grated motzarella cheese
1 X Tbsp grated Parmesan cheese

1/2 Cup of margarine/butter (cold)
1/4 Cup ice water
1 X Tsp salt

Salad:
Baby cos lettuce
Pickled chili
Olives
Tomato
Red wine vinegar dressing

1 X 20cm Square baking dish

Method:

Pie Crust:
Place flour and margarine (or butter) and salt in a food processor. Pulse until in mixture resembles bread crumbs. Poor mixture into bowl and make well in the center. Slowly, start to mix in ice water with a butter knife until mixture is roughly combined - but not like a dough - it should just form clumps.

Poor mixture onto floured surface and start to kneed/combine with hands. Only kneed for around 30secs - 1 minute. Dough should form a smooth-ish ball. It's important not to over-kneed as gluten will start to form.

Wrap dough in plastic wrap and place in fridge for 2 hours (or preferably overnight). Take dough out of fridge and place on floured surface. Split dough into 2 equal pieces.

On floured surface, roll out dough with a rolling pin until it's large enough to line the square baking tin - approx 3mm thick i.e. thin crust pizza base thickness. 

Once tin is lined with dough, place a sheet of baking paper over the dough and poor rice on top of paper. This will stop the dough from expanding. Bake for 5-8 mins on 180 degrees

Take tin out of oven.

To make pie top, roll dough again to same thickness as above. Place over pie once mixture has been added. 

Filling:
In a pot over medium heat, add either butter, margarine or olive oil. TBC....
