Maki sushi

The absence of nori is not yet a reason to put off making sushi until better times. Maki sushi can be made using beet tops, and it will turn out no less tasty than with seaweed. Before wrapping the filling in the leaves, they need to be blanched and dried. If you include curd cheese in the traditional filling of rice, fish and cucumber, the dish will get a spicy twist.

Steps:

1. 
   Rinse the rice several times in water until the liquid becomes clear. Drain in a colander and leave for 30 minutes. Wash beet tops and cucumbers and dry on paper towels. Cut the salmon and cucumber into cubes. Open the package of cream cheese. Boil 1.5 cups of water.
2. 
   Prepare the rice. Pour rice into a thick-walled pan, add hot water, cook over high heat until the liquid boils, then reduce the burner power to medium, close the lid and cook for 10 minutes. Turn off the heat and let the rice sit covered for another 15 minutes.
3. 
   Prepare the beet tops. Add a little salt to 1 glass of water, boil, place beet tops in the boiling liquid, hold for 1 minute. Place in a colander, rinse with cold water and place on a paper towel.
4. 
   Make the marinade and marinate the rice. Mix salt, sugar and vinegar in a saucepan and heat until the crystals are completely dissolved. Then pour the mixture into the rice and mix well.
5. 
   Form sushi maki. Spread a plastic bag on the work surface, lay out the beet leaves, distribute the rice, and lay out the filling in layers. Roll into a tight roll and cut into portions of approximately equal size.

   Place sushi maki on a flat serving plate and serve with soy sauce.
