Firecracker Roll
This roll is like a little explosion in your mouth. Red bell pepper gives a little spicy crunch, while the cream cheese and cilantro cool it down.
It kind of reminds me of how the weather is right now here in Southern California. Just as it’s supposed to be cooling down, WAM a heat wave hits you!
A little excitement to spice up your November.
Makes 6 rolls, or 36-48 pieces.
Ingredients
- 6 sheets nori
- 3 cups sumeshi
- 1 small red bell pepper
- 4 oz cream cheese
- 1 small bunch cilantro
- salsa
Cooking Directions
- Cook sushi rice.
- Slice the red bell pepper into thin strips, discarding the seeds.
- Cut cream cheese into thin sticks, about 1 cm wide.
- Wash cilantro, cut or tear into small pieces.
- Roll the sushi, using 2-3 slices of red bell pepper, about 3 sticks of cream cheese, and about 1/4 tsp cilantro as your fillings.
- Serve with salsa. Enjoy!

Thanks Yvo! You have an awesome blog by the way, I’m definitely going to start reading it!
I’ve never seen this one, must be a nice extreme experience if the pepper is too strong and you cover it all with wasabi hehe…
Ulysses – Hehe yeah, I didn’t try it, but Son loves spicy foods! (He eats wasabi like you wouldn’t believe!)
