Equipment

  • 1 Saucepan
  • 1 oven
  • 1 baking dish

Ingredients

For The Rice

  • 2 cup (500ml) sushi rice
  • 2 cup (500ml) water
  • 1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
  • ½ tablespoon sugar
  • ¼ tablespoon flaky salt

For The Tofu & Radish

  • 280g tofu, thinly sliced into strips
  • 10 radishes, chopped into small pieces
  • 3 tablespoon light soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 2 nori sheets, roughly broken apart

For The Toppings

  • 1 avocado, sliced into cubes
  • ½ cucumber, thinly sliced
  • 1 tablespoon furikake seasoning
  • 2 tablespoon sriracha
  • 2 tablespoon vegan mayonnaise
  • 2 spring onion, finely chopped
  • 1 carrot, julienned
  • 8 nori sheets, for serving

Instructions

  • First up, you want to cook your sushi rice. Place your rice into a saucepan and rinse the rice until the water is clear. Drain the rice and place it back into the saucepan, and add in equal amounts of water to rice quantity. Place on medium heat and once the water is slightly bubbling, place on the lid and turn the heat down to low. Cook for 10 minutes and then turn off the heat and leave the rice there. 
  • Meanwhile, prepare your tofu and radish marinade. Slice up your tofu into thin strips, chop your radishes into little pieces, and add to a bowl with nori, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, garlic, and sugar. Give everything a good mix and then set it aside. The longer you leave it to marinade, the stronger the flavours will be. 
  • In a small bowl, combine 1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar, ½ tablespoon sugar, and ¼ tablespoon salt. Pour it over your rice and combine thoroughly. Taste your rice and season more based on your preference.
  • Preheat the oven to 200C (390F) or 180C (360F) Fan.
  • Get your baking dish and spread the rice evenly along the bottom of the dish. 
  • Top with your marinated tofu and radish, diced carrot, and spring onions. 
  • Place in the oven for 20 minutes until golden.
  • Remove from the oven and add on your toppings: sliced avocado, sliced cucumber, furikake seasoning, sriracha, and mayonnaise.
  • Then serve with your nori sheets as cutlery and enjoy!
