<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\nWhat is Caribbean sushi?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Caribbean sushi is a fusion of Japanese and Caribbean cuisine. A Latin sushi roll is typically made with tropical ingredients like plantains, queso frito, mango, guacamole, and even churrasco and chimichurri. Dominican sushi in particular has become quite popular, which combines Dominican salami, queso frito, sweet plantains, avocado, and salsa rosa. I have even seen sushi rolls with mang\u00fa or mofongo inside. Some refer to this type of roll, sushi aplatanao<\/em>, which means it contains plantains. When it comes to making Caribbean sushi, the options are endless!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Place a pot over high heat. Add the water and rice to the pot and stir well. Bring to a boil. Turn the heat down to low and cover the pot. Cook for 25 minutes. Uncover the rice and fluff it up a bit. Allow to cool for about 15-20 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In a bowl, combine rice vinegar, salt, and sugar. Stir well until everything is dissolved. Drizzle the mixture over the rice, a little at a time while stirring. Keep fluffing the rice until it is evenly coated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I like using Trader Joe’s frozen shrimp tempura or gluten-free breaded shrimp. It’s delicious and the perfect size for making sushi rolls. You can also use store-bought frozen fried shrimp or just buy raw shrimp and cook it to your liking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If using frozen shrimp tempura, place it in an air fryer. Cook at 375\u2109 for 10 minutes, flipping halfway. In the meantime, julienne the carrot and cucumber. Cut the sweet plantain lengthwise into thin strips, about 3 long slices. Add oil to a frying pan. Fry the sweet plantain until golden brown, about 5 minutes on each side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Thinly slice scallions and set aside. Fill squeeze bottles with the sauces so you can get a nice drizzle on the sushi. (I linked the sauce recipes and my favorite squeeze bottles in the recipe notes below.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n Slice avocado in half and remove the pit. To each half, add sushi rice, shrimp, sweet plantains, cucumber, and carrots. Drizzle with eel sauce and spicy mayo. Sprinkle with sesame seeds, scallions, and furikake. Serve and enjoy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Caribbean sushi is typically served with Latin + Caribbean food like arroz con gandules<\/a><\/strong>, mofongo, pernil or chicharrones, churrasco with chimichurri<\/a><\/strong>, guacamole, tostones, and so on. Since this is a fusion dish it also pairs well with Asian foods like dumplings, ramen, chicken wings<\/a><\/strong>, shrimp tempura, and fried rice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you enjoy this Caribbean sushi avocado boats recipe, please leave me a 5 star review and also comment at the bottom of this blog post!
