In Taiwan, people rarely cook. Meals are cheap and easy to buy, and many people don't have kitchens.
Many of our friends are surprised and curious when they find out that we cook at home every day. Some have asked me to share meal ideas that don't require expensive Western ingredients or normal kitchen equipment. (We have 1 electric hot plate, 1 pan, 1 pot, a rice cooker, and a mini-oven. That's all you really need.)
So, here's meal idea #1: Sushi Rolls
Ingredients:
Rice
Seaweed sheets
Vegetables
Egg
Meat (optional)
1. Cook rice in the rice cooker.
2. Meanwhile, chop up some veggies you like in long strips (carrots, cabbage, cucumbers, etc.)
3. Cook a scrambled egg or two in a pan. Cut it into strips.
4. If you want meat, you could cook and chicken breast, shred it, and add salt/pepper.
5. Assemble your sushi roll (see picture above).
6. Add mayonnaise (Kalan made his own gluten-free mayo using an egg yolk, oil, and seasoning. He's amazing.)
7. Roll it up, and enjoy as a big roll or cut into pieces.
