"This recipe was adapted from a poster on another board, Sandi in Hawaii, and we love it. When you are unable to have real sushi, this is a tasty substitution. It is great for a party as everyone can just help themselves. Check out my Lazy Woman California Roll. Don't forget the wasabi!"

Delicious! I've always been curious how to make the spicy ahi sauce correctly and this one is delicious. I would give it 10 stars if I could ;)
