Southern Fusion Sushi

So, I have a real interest in fusion cooking. Like the mingling of genes from populations long kept separate, there is great potential for incredible new dishes to result from the fusion of different ingredients, techniques, spices, and forms.

In this vein, this Southern Sushi dish looks incredible to me (haven't made it yet). The roll idea from Sushi is the fusion part (and the rice), but the rest is pure Southern home cooking--chicken, okra, and collards in a dark onion gravy. Other sushi ideas are given there, too.

I'm going to cook some of my own ideas I have for fusion dishes sometime and share them here.
