Back into spam!
Bazooka Gourmet is going to kill for that one!LOL
Making the most of simple ingredients to create that ever popular Clifornai Roll!
INGREDIENTS:
-Sapm: 1 can
-Eggs: 2
-Avocado: 1 (ripe)
-Nori/dry seaweed (as much as needed)
-Sesame seeds (as much as needed)
-Mayonnaise (as much as needed)
-Rice: 2 large bowls (freshly made. See sushi rice recipe HERE)
-Salt, pepper: to taste
RECIPE:
-Cut spam into strips and fry.
-Prepare the eggs as tamagoyaki/Japanese omelette and cut as shown in above picture. Check HERE for basic Tamagoyaki recipe!
-Cut avocado as in above picture and let them for a while in some water added with lemon juice. This will prevent the avocado turning brown.
-First spread a sheet of cellophane paper over a sushi roll mat. Then spread sushi rice over it evenly and not too thickly!.
-Spread dry seaweed sheets over the rice.
-Place the sapm, tamgoyaki and avocado as shown in above picture at some distance from the extremity. Line with some mayonnaise.
Point: mix some grated wasabi with the mayonnaise first!
-Roll your Californai roll.
Unwrap and sprinkle it sesame seeds as shown in above picture.
-Cut and serve!
NOTES:
-The rice can be simple slightly salted steamed rice instead of the sushi rice.
-Tamagoyaki can be made in thin wide omelette you will roll first before lining the California roll with it.
-Let your imagination go free if you want to replace the sesame seeds with something else!
Easy, isn’t it?

Oh dear… the spam is fried too, of course. Ghetto sushi at its best 🙂 Egg + spam, such a classic combo. My mom used to make me scrambled eggs with spam for lunch!
