Instructions
1- Prepare the Rice:
Rinse the Japanese rice under cold water until the water runs clear.
In a rice cooker or a medium-sized pot, combine the rice and water. Bring to a boil over high heat.
Once boiling, lower the heat to a simmer, cover, and cook for 20 minutes.
Turn off the heat and let the rice rest, covered, for another 20 minutes.
While the rice is resting, mix the rice vinegar, sugar, and salt in a small saucepan. Heat over low heat until the sugar dissolves completely.
Spread the cooked rice onto a tray, and drizzle the vinegar mixture over it. Mix gently with a spatula until well incorporated. Allow the seasoned rice to cool to room temperature.
2- Assemble the Temaki:
Place a sheet of nori, shiny side down, on a clean work surface. Add a small layer of seasoned rice onto the nori, covering roughly half of the sheet.
Place a portion of cooked salmon, a touch of cream cheese, and a sprinkle of chopped chives onto the rice. Roll the nori into a cone shape like an ice cream cone.
Beat the eggs in a shallow bowl. Dip the temaki rolls into the beaten egg, then coat evenly with panko breadcrumbs.
Heat the cooking oil in a deep frying pan over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, fry the temaki rolls until crispy and golden brown on all sides.
Remove the temaki from the oil and drain on paper towels. Serve hot with a side of teriyaki sauce or shoyu.
