  • 1/2 cup thinly sliced carrots, par-boiled
  • 1/2 cup thinly sliced Japanese cucumbers

  • Shoga (sliced pickled ginger) for garnish

Directions:

  1. In a rice cooker or a large saucepan, add rice and water; cook until done.

  5. Line a 13 x 9 x 2-inch pan with two sheets of waxed paper.
  6. Sprinkle the furikake evenly in pan.
  7. Spread half of the seasoned rice on the furikake, packing firmly.
  8. Spread the tuna over the rice.
  9. Alternately layer the carrots and cucumbers in rows over the tuna.
  10. Cover with remaining rice then the sheets of nori.
  11. Firmly pack the rice down with another 13 x 9 x 2-inch pan so the layers will stick together.
  12. Cover until ready to serve.
  13. To serve, cut into squares and garnish with shoga.

Makes 9 servings.

Note: Other condiments such as Japanese pickled vegetables or kanpyo (dried gourd strips) can be added when layering the carrots and cucumbers.
