Vegetarian Crunchy Roll Bowls

These Vegetarian Crunchy Roll Bowls offer a fresh, flavorful twist on sushi rolls featuring crisp vegetables, creamy avocado, and crunchy toppings served over a bed of seasoned rice.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup sushi rice
  • 1 1/4 cups water
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup shredded carrots
  • 1 cup thinly sliced cucumber
  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • 1/2 cup edamame, shelled and cooked
  • 2 sheets nori, cut into strips
  • 1/4 cup crispy fried onions
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
  • 1 teaspoon sriracha (optional)

Instructions

  1. Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until water runs clear. Combine rice and water in a pot and bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat to low, and simmer for 18 minutes. Remove from heat and let sit covered for 10 minutes.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together rice vinegar, sugar, and salt until dissolved. Gently fold this mixture into the cooked rice. Let cool slightly.
  3. Divide the seasoned rice evenly into bowls.
  4. Top each bowl with shredded carrots, cucumber slices, avocado, and edamame evenly.
  5. Sprinkle nori strips, crispy fried onions, and toasted sesame seeds over the bowls.
  6. Drizzle soy sauce and sriracha (if using) over the top just before serving.
  7. Serve immediately for the best crunch and flavor.

Notes

For added protein, try adding baked tofu or tempeh. Serve with pickled ginger on the side for a traditional sushi experience.
