Asian Hand Rolls
Wrap your salad greens in a sheet of nori for a burst of Japanese flavor and to create a delicious, portable lunch, ready for dressing whenever you’re ready to eat. DOLE®’s Chopped Sesame Asian Kit adds crunch, and quinoa adds protein, which turns this handy salad into a satisfying meal.
Ingredients
- 1-1/2 cups cooked quinoa
- 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
- 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- Salt to taste
- 1 DOLE® Chopped Sesame Asian Salad Kit
- 6 Nori seaweed sheets, cut in half lengthwise
Directions
- Season quinoa with rice vinegar, cilantro, sesame oil and salt, set aside.
- Cut seaweed sheets in half, lengthwise with scissors. Lay sheets flat on the counter and spread 2 tablespoons of quinoa on each one.
- Divide greens between the seaweed sheets. Roll the seaweed sheet into a cone and arrange on a platter, seam side down.
- Drizzle Toasted Sesame Ginger Vinaigrette from the salad kit inside the cone, over the greens and top with sliced almonds and crisp garlic wontons. Eat right away.
- Tip: An easy way to roll Nori into a cone is to pinch the seaweed sheet at the center spot on the long side. Then one side at a time, wrap the seaweed sheet around the salad, retaining the “spot” as the point of the cone.
