How to Make Brown Rice Quinoa Sushi Rolls
- Combine 1 cup brown rice, ½ cup quinoa, and 1 ¼ cups water in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 40-45 minutes, or until all liquid is absorbed.
- While the rice and quinoa are cooking, prepare your fillings. Dice 1 cucumber, ½ cup shredded carrot, and 1 ripe avocado into sushi-friendly pieces.
- Once the rice and quinoa mixture has cooled slightly, gently mix in 2 tablespoons rice vinegar, 1 teaspoon sugar, and ½ teaspoon salt.
- Lay out a sheet of nori seaweed, shiny side down, on a bamboo sushi rolling mat.
- Spread a thin, even layer of the rice and quinoa mixture over the nori, leaving about 1 inch of space at the top edge.
- Arrange your chosen fillings (cucumber, carrot, and avocado are suggested) in a line across the center of the rice.
- Using the bamboo mat, gently lift the bottom edge of the nori over the filling and begin rolling tightly.
- Moisten the top edge of the nori with a little water to seal the roll.
- Continue rolling until you have a tight cylinder.
- Using a sharp knife dipped in water, cut the roll into 6 or 8 pieces.
- Repeat steps 4-9 with the remaining nori sheets.
- Serve immediately and enjoy your homemade sushi rolls!
