INGREDIENTS (for 4 people):

- 300g of Japanese rice
- 60ml of rice vinegar
- 500g of fresh salmon
- 3 tbsp of soy sauce
- 30g of toasted sesame seeds
- 2 avocados
- 1 cucumber
- Butter
- Salt


STEPS:

1. Wash the rice thoroughly with water 3 times until the water runs clear. Drain and put the rice in a saucepan.

2. Add 400ml of water. Heat on high with a lid until it boils. Let it boil for 2 minutes, then lower the heat for 10 minutes on low heat. Turn off the heat and let it rest for 10 minutes with the lid on.

3. Cut the salmon into small cubes. Marinate it in half of the rice vinegar. Set aside.

4. Cut the avocados into small cubes as well. Peel the cucumber, remove the seeds, and cut it into small cubes.

5. After the rice is cooked, transfer it to a bowl. Immediately add the rice vinegar, mix well and let it cool.

Using a spatula, mix gently without crushing. Let it cool.

6. To assemble the chirashis, serve the rice in bowls and then cover with the salmon drizzled with a bit of soy sauce. Add the diced avocado and cucumber on top and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Enjoy! Or as they say in Japan: Itadakimasu!!


Ivy the cook from Recette et Cabas adds her own touch to this simplified recipe: « Chirashi sushi is a "scattered sushi." It is commonly served during Hina Matsuri (Doll Festival) on March 3, a day dedicated to little girls. Japanese rice is a round grain, similar to the Italian arborio rice used for risotto. You can find it in supermarkets or organic stores. It is often labeled as "sushi rice" on the packaging.»
