Cook sushi rice according to package instructions and allow to cool.

Mix rice vinegar, sugar, and salt in a small bowl until dissolved.

Fold the vinegar mixture into the cooled sushi rice gently.

Season the steak with salt and black pepper, then sear in a hot pan for 1-2 minutes on each side until rare.

Remove the steak from the pan and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing thinly against the grain.

Lay a nori sheet on a bamboo sushi mat, shiny side down.

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

Arrange slices of steak, avocado, and cucumber along the bottom edge of the rice.

Roll the sushi tightly using the mat, applying gentle pressure to shape it.

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

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

Sprinkle sesame seeds on top for garnish.

Serve with soy sauce, wasabi, and pickled ginger.
