- 1 cup water
- 1/4 cup rice vinegar
Piquant Sauce:
- 1/2 cup plain yogurt
- 1 tablespoon mustard
- 1 tablespoon horseradish
- 1/2 avocado, mashed until smooth
Maki:
- 2 sheets nori
- 2 cups prepared sushi rice
- 6 thin slices corned beef
- 1/2 avocado, cut into slivers
- 1/4 cucumber, cut lengthwise into thin strips
- rice seasoning
- wasabi peas
- To make hand vinegar: In small bowl, stir water and rice vinegar.
- To make piquant sauce: In small bowl, blend yogurt, mustard, horseradish and avocado.
- To make maki: Lay sushi mat on clean surface. Moisten hands with hand vinegar and shake off excess. Place one nori sheet on mat, shiny-side down. Spread 1 cup rice across nori, leaving 1 inch empty at farthest end.
- Lay half of corned beef, avocado and cucumber crosswise along rice, covering half the surface closest to you.
- Securing corned beef, avocado and cucumber with fingers, use thumbs to push end of mat up and over filling until edge of the nori meets rice on opposite side. Press firmly on roll.
- Lift top of mat and roll firmly until tight and round. Squeeze gently to shape roll. Press ends in carefully to secure loose rice. Remove mat and set roll aside.
- Repeat to make second roll.
- Use thin, sharp knife to cut each roll into eight slices. Arrange on sushi platter and sprinkle with rice seasoning and wasabi peas. Serve with piquant sauce.
