Ingredients

Maple Soy Sauce:

1 tablespoon organic maple syrup

1 tablespoon soy sauce

Dynamite Sauce:

½ cup olive oil mayonnaise

1 tablespoon sriracha

¼ teaspoon toasted sesame oil

Dynamite Roll Ingredients:

Sushi/sticky rice (approximately 1 cup of uncooked rice, prepared according to package instructions)

2 nori sheets

34 tempura shrimp (or frozen shrimp, reheated and cut in half)

Cucumber, sliced

Avocado, sliced

Mango, sliced

Sesame seeds, for garnish


Instructions

How to Cook Sushi Rice:
Soak and rinse the rice 4–5 times to remove starch. Soak for 30 minutes to 1 hour. Rinse and drain. Cook rice using a rice cooker or stovetop for 10–12 minutes. Mix in vinegar, sugar, sesame oil, and sesame seeds. Stir gently.

How to Make the Tempura Batter:
In a large bowl, whisk together egg, flour, cornstarch, baking powder, and curry powder. Slowly add ice water until a smooth batter forms.

How to Make the Tempura Shrimp:
Clean the shrimp. Heat oil in a skillet. Dip shrimp into tempura batter and fry for 3 minutes until golden. Set aside to cool.

Maple Soy Sauce:
In a bowl, whisk maple syrup and soy sauce together.

Dynamite Sauce:
In a separate bowl, mix olive oil mayonnaise, sriracha, and toasted sesame oil.

Assembling the Dynamite Rolls:
Place a bamboo mat on a flat surface and cover with plastic wrap. Lay nori sheet on the mat, spreading rice thinly. Flip the nori so the rice is facing down. Add tempura shrimp, cucumber, avocado, and mango. Drizzle dynamite sauce and maple soy sauce over the filling. Roll using the bamboo mat, sprinkle with sesame seeds, and cut into bite-sized pieces. Repeat with remaining ingredients.

Serve and Enjoy!

Notes

For extra crunch, add fried onions or tempura flakes inside the roll.

Adjust the spice level of the dynamite sauce by adding more or less sriracha.

Best served immediately but can be refrigerated for up to 24 hours.
