dragon roll
Eel-avocado maki specialty
A dragon roll is a type of sushi roll, typically featuring shrimp tempura or eel inside, wrapped in rice and nori, then topped with sliced avocado arranged to resemble dragon scales.
The roll is often finished with eel sauce and sesame seeds.
It originated in American sushi restaurants and remains a popular menu item for those who prefer cooked ingredients or sweeter, richer flavors in their sushi.
