Today’s Special: Mediterranean Sushi Bowl

Greetings foodies! Today, I’m excited to share with you a unique and flavorful recipe that combines the freshness of Mediterranean ingredients with the fun and convenience of sushi. This Mediterranean Sushi Bowl is a perfect dish for a light lunch or dinner, and it’s a great way to showcase the vibrant flavors of the region in a new and innovative way.

For this recipe, you’ll need the following ingredients:

  • 200g sushi rice
  • 150g cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 cucumber, thinly sliced
  • 100g Kalamata olives, pitted
  • 100g feta cheese, crumbled
  • 1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
  • Handful of fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1 lemon, sliced into wedges
  • 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

To bring this dish to life, you’ll need the following kitchen tools:

  • rice cooker
  • cutting board
  • knife
  • mixing bowl
  • fork

Start by cooking the sushi rice according to package instructions in the rice cooker. Once the rice is ready, fluff it with a fork and set it aside to cool slightly. In a mixing bowl, combine the cherry tomatoes, cucumber, Kalamata olives, feta cheese, red onion, and fresh parsley. Drizzle with extra virgin olive oil, season with salt and pepper, and toss gently to combine.

To assemble the Mediterranean Sushi Bowl, divide the sushi rice among serving bowls and top with the veggie mixture. Garnish with lemon wedges and an extra sprinkle of fresh parsley. Serve immediately and enjoy the fresh and zesty flavors of the Mediterranean in every bite.

This Mediterranean Sushi Bowl recipe serves 4 and each serving weighs approximately 300g. One serving is estimated to have around 350 calories. A clever tip for this dish is to squeeze some of the lemon wedges over the bowl just before serving to add a burst of citrusy freshness to the dish.

I hope you give this unique recipe a try and feel free to customize it with your favorite Mediterranean ingredients. Enjoy!
