Chef Devaux -- Teriyaki Chicken Sushi Roll
So first off you want to make some Teriyaki
Chicken, it's very simple to make.
You just take a hot pan add some sesame seed
oil and some olive oil then add your chicken.
Alright, so you want the chicken to be cooked
but not overcooked, if it's overcooked then
it's very dry, so make sure you really don't
overcook it, but also don't undercook it because
then it's raw, obviously.
Okay so just flip over the chicken and then
when it's perfectly cooked you add some thick
sweet teriyaki sauce, just drizzle it over
like that.
This is a very simple sauce to make.
If you want to know how to make it then check
out the link in the description of this video.
Alright so just glaze the chicken a little
bit with the teriyaki sauce and not too long
and then put it to the side ready to make
the sushi.
Alright, so you start off by laying a bamboo
rolling mat inside a plastic bag with a half
sheet of Nori on top of it, rough side up.
Then you slightly wet your hands so that the
rice doesn't stick so much with water and
vinegar rice mixture, and you take 120g of
cooked seasoned sushi rice and you spread
it out evenly over your half sheet, and you
want to do this nice and softly and fluff
it out.
Now flip the sheet over with the rice, and
place two pieces of teriyaki chicken you just
made earlier, then add a little bit of sliced
cucumber, a very small amount because otherwise
you won't be able to close it.
Then you add a little bit of teriyaki sauce,
okay, and then you roll it.
You just bring up the back end, you pull it
over and then you compress.
Then you let go, push forwards and compress
again and let go one more time, and push forward
and compress one more time, and there you
go, that's your sushi roll.
Okay now you just move this to one side, and
you take a half avocado and then you start
slicing very thin slices, about 1mm thickness
is what you want to aim for and you want to
have very precise cuts.
By only dragging the tip of the knife through
the avocado you encounter less resistance
and then the avocado doesn't stick to the
knife as much, if you go flat up and down
what will happen is the avocado slices that
are cut very thinly will just stick to the
knife as you pull back out.
Once you've cut the avocado slices you spread
them out thinly on the board just like so,
and then you just trim off the sides.
This is just to make it look a little neater.
Alright, then move your sushi roll so you
can easily add the avocado slices and the
with your knife you just slide it underneath
the avocado slices and then place it on top
of your sushi roll, just like so.
Now you take a piece of cling film and you
place it over your sushi roll, and then press
this on with another bamboo rolling mat, this
one without a plastic bag over it so the plastic
wrap doesn't stick to it, and then release.
Now to cut the sushi roll.
Alright so wet your knife again to a damp
rag so the sushi rice doesn't stick to it
much, then just cut your roll in half, place
the two together.
Okay, so cut the sushi roll into six pieces
and two spare off cuts.
Don't forget to wet your knife on a damp cloth
in between cuts, this helps against rice sticking
against the blade and makes it much easier
to cut through the sushi.
These will be the end bits of the roll and
these can be eaten by the chef or thrown away.
Now remove the cling film very gently and
then you have six perfect pieces of sushi
left over.
Alright so to plate up, you simply place your
sushi roll pieces and you place them onto
a plate, add a little pickle ginger then you
drizzle some thick sweet teriyaki sauce over
it.
Just look at that glossy thick honey like
consistency, just marvelous, and then sprinkle
with some freshly toasted sesame seeds and
violà, done.
