California Roll Jars

Tired of boring sandwiches for lunch? If you like sushi but don't like the fuss of making them, whip up a few of these California Roll Jars and you'll be looking forward to lunchtime!

Ingredients:
1/2 cup uncooked sticky rice (I used brown but white is good)
1/4 tsp salt
1 nori sheet
1 avocado, cubed
some cubed cucumber
some julienned carrot
1 can albacore tuna
1  1/2 tsps rice vinegar
1  1/2 tsps sugar

Your choice of garnishes: pickled ginger, sesame seeds, soya sauce

Rinse the rice then cook as per package directions with salt. Dissolve the sugar in rice vinegar and mix into the cooked rice.

Layer a base of rice in each jar, then start layering the rest of the ingredients. I used albacore but crab, canned salmon or (duh) sushi-grade salmon could be used but I'm not that adventurous! 

And don't forget to add strips of nori like I did in my first jar. Not a "roll" without the seaweed!

Top with a final layer of rice then add pickled ginger, sesame seeds or whatever floats your boat. Have a little container of soya sauce or tamari for drizzling.

When's lunch??

Makes 3 - 1/2 pint jars
