Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

2 cups uncooked short-grain white rice
2 ¼ cups water
¼ cup soy sauce
2 teaspoons honey
1 teaspoon minced garlic
3 ounces firm tofu, cut into 1/2 inch strips
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
4 sheets nori seaweed sheets
½ cucumber, julienned
½ avocado, julienned
1 small carrot, julienned

Steps:

In a large saucepan cover rice with water and let stand for 30 minutes.
In a shallow dish combine soy sauce, honey and garlic. In this mixture marinate tofu for at least 30 minutes.
Bring water and rice to a boil and then reduce heat; simmer for about 20 minutes, or until thick and sticky. In a large glass bowl combine cooked rice with rice vinegar.
Place a sheet of nori on a bamboo mat. Working with wet hands, spread 1/4 of the rice evenly over the nori; leave about 1/2 inch on the top edge of the nori. Place 2 strips of marinated tofu end to end about 1 inch from the bottom. Place 2 strips of cucumber next to the tofu, then avocado and carrot.
Roll nori tightly from the bottom, using the mat to help make a tight roll. Seal by moistening with water the 1/2 inch at the top. Repeat with remaining ingredients. Slice with a serrated knife into 1 inch thick slices.

Ingredients

6 sheets nori, trimmed with scissors if neccesary
8 slices processed cheese (eg gouda, cheddar, etc.)

Steps:

Trim nori to the same size as the cheese slices, if neccesary. Squares are easiest to work with.
Starting with a slice of cheese, layer with the nori and alternate, using 3 sheets/squares of nori and 4 slices of cheese.
Press together firmly and cut into triangles or bite sized squares. If serving as an appetizer feel free to put little toothpicks in the centre of each piece - these hold together well though so it's not neccesary. :).
