Snacks for everyone!

These are easy snack that I am sure everyone can make but to be honest the California Rolls are probably the hardest as in some ways you have to practice to make the perfect Sushi Roll.

Egg and Cheese Sandwich

Ingredients

Bread
Boiled eggs, chopped
Red capsicum (or green), chopped
Onion, chopped
Tomato, chopped
Mozzarella cheese, grated
Oregano
Mayonnaise
Salt
Black pepper powder
Chili flakes
Olive oil

Method

Take a bowl and add all the ingredients except bread, one after another.
Brush some olive oil onto the bread.
Take a slice of bread and place some of the mixture of ingredients on it.
Grate some more cheese on it. (Optional, for extra taste) and sprinkle little more chili flakes, oregano on it.
Place the bread slice on a grill in the microwave for 10 - 15 min at 200 c or until crisp and golden brown.
Can be served with ketchup or dip of your choice.
P.S. - If you want to make this recipe healthier you can substitute some of the ingredients for some of your own choice.

California Sushi Rolls

Ingredients

1 cup (215g) sushi rice
1 cup (250ml) cold water
1/3 cup (80ml) low-fat mayonnaise
2 hard-boiled eggs, peeled
1 Lebanese cucumber, finely chopped
1 carrot, peeled, finely chopped
1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
4 nori sheets
1/2 ripe avocado, stone removed, peeled, sliced
Salt reduced soy sauce, to serve

Method

Place the rice in a large sieve. Rinse under cold running water, stirring occasionally to remove any excess starch, until the water runs clear. Drain all the water from the rice.
Combine the rice and water in a medium saucepan over high heat. Cover the saucepan and bring to the boil. Reduce heat to low and cook, covered, for 12 minutes or until water has absorbed. Set aside, covered, to cool slightly.
Meanwhile, combine the mayonnaise and eggs in a bowl. Use a fork to mash until smooth.
Combine the cucumber, carrot and hoisin sauce in a bowl.
Place 1 nori sheet, shiny-side down, on a sushi mat. Use wet hands to spread one-quarter of the rice over the nori sheet, leaving a 2cm border at 1 short end.
Spread one-quarter of the egg mixture over the rice. Top with one-quarter of the cucumber mixture. Top with avocado slices. Roll sushi mat up firmly to enclose the filling. Repeat to make 3 more rolls.
Cut the sushi rolls into 1.5cm slices. Serve with soy sauce.
P.S. - I think the hardest part of this dish is the presentation and measurements but you can get around that problem very easily.

The Manwich

Ingredients

A baguette (Suggest a big one)
Thinly cut beef or chicken
Bacon
Onions
Tomato
Egg
Cheese
Lettuce
Garlic Mayo
Salt
Pepper

Method

Cut all the vegetables to your liking (it would be best if they were thin)
Fry the egg, bacon (or chicken) and onions if you want
Cook the beef, this process should only take about a minute if the beef is thin however if you substitute this ingredient for chicken I would suggest you buy a nice sauce as it can become very dry if you fry it for too long so watch the chicken like a hawk.
Now combine everything together…Walla.
I promise you…Best sandwich ever!
P.S. - I have made this recipe only using the chicken as I don't eat pig's meat but my friend has tasted the other version and said it was awesome. So Enjoy.
