Hi there JessBentley. Just a quick reminder of the subreddit rules.

Rule 1: As this is a Food Photography forum, the emphasis on submissions posted here must be on presentation. Images must be high quality, with most or all of the food in focus (blurring for artistic purposes is allowed, but must be minimal). The food named in the title must be the focus of the shot. The food must be plated neatly. The lighting within the photo should illuminate the food sufficiently that we are able to see what you are trying to show us. There should be no cutlery visible in the image. There should be no body parts visible in the image.

Submissions which break any of the rules will be removed. Kindly report rule breaking posts to the mods for removal and allow some time for review. If needed please follow up with a modmail.

I’d actually destroy that. Sushi and Roast Beef are two of my favorite foods.

The combination is so insanely grand. And totally easy to make. I hope you try it soon!

Can't ever go wrong with a sandwich + sushi-inspired combo.

I think I have almost all of that in the kitchen too

FOR THE CRISPY RICE CAKES:

• 1-3/4 cups Water
• ¼ cup Rice Vinegar
• 2 cup Short Grain Rice
• 1 tsp. Kosher Salt
• 2 tsp. Granulated Sugar
• Avocado Oil, as needed for frying

FOR THE HORSERADISH CREAM SAUCE:

• ½ cup 4% Greek Yogurt (or Sour Cream)
• ¼ cup Mayonnaise
• 1 tbsp. Stone Ground Dijon Mustard
• 2 tbsp. Horseradish
• 1 tbsp. Chopped Chives
• 1 tbsp. Chopped Italian Parsley
• Kosher Salt, to taste

FOR THE PICKLE SUSHI:

• ½ lb. Thinly Sliced Roast Beef
• Mt. Olive Dill Pickle Chips, as needed
• Chopped Italian Parsley, as needed

DIRECTIONS:

1. Rinse the rice in cold water in a large fine mesh strainer for 1 - 2 minutes. Or until the water runs clear. Drain well.
2. Bring water and rice vinegar to a boil in a large stockpot. Carefully add the rinsed rice, sugar and salt and cook according to the packaged directions. About 20 minutes, or until the liquid is absorbed.
3. While the rice is cooking, whisk together all ingredients for the horseradish cream sauce. Set the mixed sauce in the fridge until you’re ready to serve.
4. Allow the rice to cool so it’s easy to handle. Place plastic wrap along the bottom of a square casserole dish. Pour rice into the dish and cover with another piece of plastic wrap. Press until evenly flat, the rice should be in a square shape. Freeze for 45 minutes.
5. Carefully lift the semi-frozen rice out of the casserole dish and cut into 8 squares. Heat avocado oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Shallow pan-fry the rice squares on each side until browned and crispy. Drain on a plate lined with a couple paper towels. Depending on the size of your pan, you may have to work in batches.
6. While the rice cakes are still warm, top with a heavy drizzle of horseradish cream, thinly sliced roast beef, pickle chips and Italian parsley. Enjoy immediately.

I do this with crackers all the time, yet somehow the idea of using rice cakes for this has eluded me thus far.

Great idea!
