Sushi on a budget

Santa took all my money and turned them into presents late 2008,
so here's a tip for low budget luxury:

Make sushi yourself!

I convinced my understanding boyfriend that veggie sushi was the thing.
Didnt really feel like pushing digestive limits.
Nor did i feel like having salmon left overs all over my coke can size kitchen.
Oh and yes, fish is expensive.

So, shopping list;

Avocado
Cucumber
Sushi rice (no, Uncle Ben's 5 minute rice will NOT do)
Sea weed sheets
Green scary put-throat-on-fire paste
Soya sauce

That rice was so sticky.

Now let me present; veggie maki rolls!

Should we start taking orders?!

Of course, in this super pro and service minded sushi shop we try to make the customers as happy as possible. I'd even throw in a green tea leaf just for you^^

One order of avocado/cucumber maki is on the way to Vienna! They might not look as fresh as they do on these pictures when they arrive though^^
