Prepare sushi rice according to package instructions and let cool.

Slice fresh tuna into small cubes and place in a bowl.

Mix mayonnaise and sriracha in a separate bowl to create the spicy sauce.

Add chopped scallions to the tuna and mix gently.

In a bamboo sushi mat, lay a sheet of nori, shiny side down.

Spread a thin layer of sushi rice over the nori, leaving a small border at the top.

Drizzle sesame oil over the rice for added flavor.

Place a line of the spicy tuna mixture across the center of the rice.

Add thin strips of cucumber and avocado on top of the tuna.

Using the bamboo mat, roll the sushi tightly away from you, applying gentle pressure.

Seal the edge of the nori with a little water to hold the roll together.

Slice the roll into bite-sized pieces with a sharp knife.

Serve with soy sauce, wasabi, and pickled ginger on the side.
