Follow The Directions

01

Step
10 mins

Prepare the Cucumber Ribbons: Using a vegetable peeler, carefully slice the cucumber lengthwise into thin, even ribbons, approximately 1/8-inch thick. Aim for 8 ribbons. Then, gently cut each ribbon into 3 equal pieces. (Estimated time: 10 minutes)

02

Step
5 mins

Craft the Filling: In a small bowl, combine the shredded carrot, softened cream cheese, and finely chopped golden raisins. Mix thoroughly until well combined. (Estimated time: 5 minutes)

03

Step
15 mins

Assemble the Sushi Rolls: Place a small amount (about 1 teaspoon) of the carrot-cream cheese mixture along the bottom edge of a cucumber slice. Gently roll the cucumber slice, starting from the filled end, to create a delicate sushi roll. (Estimated time: 15 minutes)

04

Step
10 mins

Secure with Chives: Carefully tie each roll with a fresh chive to secure it, ensuring the filling remains neatly inside. (Estimated time: 10 minutes)

05

Step
15 mins

Chill and Serve: Arrange the finished cucumber sushi rolls on a platter and chill for at least 15 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld and the rolls to firm up slightly. (Estimated time: 15 minutes for chilling)

For an extra touch of elegance, consider using a star-tip piping bag to pipe the cream cheese mixture onto the cucumber slices.
If golden raisins aren't your preference, try dried cranberries or finely diced apricots for a different flavor profile.
To ensure the chives are pliable, soak them in cold water for a few minutes before using them to tie the rolls.
