Yes, you can braai sushi
I didn't know this, but Sushi doesn't necc. imply raw fish... that's Sashimi. When a friend of mine suggested we try out some Sushi-Style prawn rolls, I immediately objected. You see... I've never enjoyed raw fish/"sushi"... but it turns out that the recipe required the prawns to be cooked, which then meant it wasn't sushi, right? Wrong!
Sushi
The word sushi literally means "sour-tasting"... and refers to the vinegar-rice that it is made with. Snopes.com sums it up nicely:
Contrary to popular belief, sushi does not mean raw seafood. Instead, the word refers to the vinegared rice that can (but need not) be paired with raw seafood.
Prawn Cucumber (sushi-looking) Rolls
In this episode of BraaiBoy TV, I recreate the dish from that night... Technically, it's not sushi either (since it doesn't use the vinegar-rice), but it looks a lot like something you would find in a sushi bar... and it's a delicious starter/snack for your next braai.

Braaing the prawns
rolled up in cucumber slices
Almost ready to snack
... and that's how I figured out that I actually DO eat Sushi :P
THANK YOU
- A huge shoutout to Bazaruto Seafoods in Groenkloof for hooking us with all the delicious ingredients... there really is no better place to get seafood in Pretoria.
- Shoutout as always to Jimmy's Sauces for sponsoring and making the shooting of the episode possible.

Yes, you keep surprising me! When I saw the title I though "no, he can not put sushi on the grill", but after reading it, it made perfect sense

hahaha... thanks for watching. Yeah, I've been using "sushi" wrong for years now.
Guess what someone is making for us in Mozambique next week.

I'm sure that can be arranged!

I can't believe you didn't know the difference between sushi and sashimi!
I love both and if I can get really fresh tuna or salmon, I'll eat it fresh, like sashimi with a little soy sauce, wasabi and, of course, that divine pickled ginger. Before I tasted it, I thought I'd HATE it.
I'm going to give that sushi a go: I'd do two things differently.
I didn't know this last bit when I ate sushi in Japan and for my first mouthful, had a double dose of Wasabi. Suffice it to say, I drank quite a bit of saki to compensate!
Lekker!
nicely presented. Those rolls can be done with salmon too, i guess?
