spicy mayonnaise

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt with sriracha

💰Cheaper: mayonnaise with hot sauce

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess.

fresh salmon

🥗Healthier: seared tuna

💰Cheaper: cooked shrimp

Seared tuna provides a similar texture and flavor.

nori sheets

🥗Healthier: rice paper

💰Cheaper: lettuce leaves

Rice paper is lower in calories and gluten-free.

avocado

🥗Healthier: mashed avocado

💰Cheaper: avocado spread

Mashed avocado can be used for a similar creamy texture.

Wet your hands to prevent sushi rice from sticking.

Grab 150 grams of sushi rice and lightly pack it into a ball.

Spread the sushi rice on a half sheet of nori, covering the surface entirely and the edges evenly.

Flip the nori over to the bare side and add the snow crab salad in the center.

Place the thinly sliced cucumbers evenly next to the snow crab salad.

Roll the sushi tightly starting from the side closest to you, bringing it over the ingredients.

Fold up and roll over so the flap is on the bottom.

Cook the unagi in a toaster oven for about 4 to 5 minutes, or grill for 2 to 3 minutes, ensuring the top side is down on the tray.

Once cooked, place the unagi on top of the roll, starting with the larger piece at the edge for the head, followed by the other pieces for the body and tail.

Cover the roll with plastic wrap and use a makisu to press and shape the roll, applying even pressure for 30 to 45 seconds.

Cut the roll while the plastic wrap is still on, first cutting in half, then each section in half again to create eight pieces.

Plate the dragon roll on a large dinner plate, separating the pieces slightly.

Sauce the roll with teriyaki starting from the head and making lines along the back.

Spread masago on the six pieces in between the head and the tail.

Place the octopus suckers on the headpiece to simulate eyes.

Cut the chive in half to create horns and place them behind the eyes.

Add two dots of hot sauce on the suckers for the eyes and a little teriyaki sauce in the center to finish the plating.
