Instructions
- Rinse rice under cold running water until water runs clear. Cook in a rice cooker with 3 1/2 cups water. Combine vinegar, 2 tablespoons sugar and 1 teaspoon salt in a small bowl. Transfer hot rice to a large bowl. Sprinkle with vinegar mixture, while mixing rice quickly with a spatula. Using a stiff piece of paper, fan rice while stirring to cool it (this will give it a shine).
- Meanwhile: place carrot, 1/2 cup water and a pinch of sugar and salt in a small saucepan and cook over medium heat for 3-5 minutes or until soft. Drain, then set aside to cool.
- Place shiitake in a bowl and pour over 2 cups lukewarm water. Stand for 20 minutes or until soft. Drain and finely chop, reserving soaking liquid.
- Place kanpyo in a sieve and rinse under cold running water. Rub 1 teaspoon salt into kanpyo and rinse again. Cook in a large saucepan of boiling water for 5 minutes or until soft. Drain, then finely chop.
- Place reserved shiitake liquid, shiitakes, remaining sugar, soy sauce, kanpyo and bamboo in a small saucepan. Cook over medium heat for 20 minutes or until water has almost evaporated. Set aside to cool.
- Combine eggs, dashi and mirin in a bowl. Heat oil in a 20cm non-stick frying pan over low heat. Working in batches, pour in 1/4 cup egg mixture to make a thin omelette. Cook for 1 minute each side or until just set but not browned. Remove from pan and cut into thin strips.
- Fold carrot and shiitake mixture into rice. Using slightly moistened hands, mould heaped tablespoons of rice mixture into 2.5 x 5cm rectangles, about 2.5cm high. Top with a slice of salmon, snow peas, omelette strips and salmon roe, if using. Serve.
