Vegan Vegetable Plant-based Sushi with ginger sauce {gluten-free, vegan, healthy, dairy-free, raw vegan}

Sushi is one of my favorite foods. Every Friday night I would go out to my favorite Japanese restaurant, order my favorite roll and enjoy. Sadly, once the virus hit and everything closed I was not able to order sushi. So, being the chef/baker that I am, I was determined to still have sushi Friday’s so I decided to try my hand at making my own.

Now, this recipe contains no fish because no matter how good a cook I am I will never use raw fish in a recipe. So, this recipe is vegan but if you’re confident enough to use fish then go ahead. Replace some of the veggies or tempeh that I use.

One of my favorite parts about this recipe is how easy it is to make. Seriously! All you need are a handful of ingredients, about 10 minutes of your time (if that) and voila, have made beautiful vegetable sushi that’s gluten-free, dairy-free, vegan, paleo, raw vegan, healthy and 100% made by you!

Ingredients

• Pack of Organic GF Sushi Seaweed Sheets – you only need 1-2 sheets for this recipe
• 1 carrot- thinly sliced
• 1/2 cup micro-greens
• Pack of non seasoned Tempeh (optional) – omit if only making vegetable sushi
• Small Cucumber – thinly sliced
• 1 avocado – sliced
• 1/2 cup white rice – replace with brown rice for healthier version
• 2 tsp chili powder (only use if making recipe with tempeh)
• 1 tsp turmeric (only use if making with tempeh)
• 1 tsp curry powder (only use if making with tempeh)
• 1 tbsp olive oil (only use if making tempeh)
• Pack of Sushi Ginger or use ginger sauce or gluten free soy sauce (all optional)

Directions

1. Cook rice as directed on package. Once cooked drain water but don’t rinse off, you want it sticky. Set down to cool.
2. Cook tempeh- if not making this recipe with tempeh then skip to step 3. Add olive oil to pan, place 3 strips of 1/2 inch wide cut tempeh into pan, season with spices and cook until crispy. Let cool.
3. Place a sheet of seaweed paper onto a plate or cutting board. Add cooled rice, sliced tempeh, sliced carrot, sliced avocado, 1/2 of the 1/4 cup micro greens, few strips of cucumber. Make sure to leave some room on the sides of the seaweed paper. Then roll up.
4. Repeat this process with the remainder of ingredients or until you have the desired number of sushi rolls you want.
5. Top with wasabi, sushi ginger, gluten-free soy sauce or gluten-free ginger sauce (optional).
