Ingredients
- ●2 cups sushi rice
- ●2 1/2 cups water
- ●1/4 cup rice vinegar
- ●2 tbsp sugar
- ●1 tsp salt
- ●4 sheets nori (seaweed)
- ●1 cucumber, julienned
- ●1 avocado, sliced
- ●8 oz raw fish (like tuna or salmon), sliced
- ●soy sauce, for serving
- ●wasabi, for serving
- ●pickled ginger, for serving
Instructions
- 1Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear.

- 4Place a bamboo sushi mat on a flat surface and lay a sheet of nori on top, shiny side down.

- 6Arrange cucumber, avocado, and fish in a line across the center of the rice.
- 7Using the bamboo mat, carefully roll the sushi away from you, pressing gently but firmly to keep the roll tight.
- 8Once rolled, use a sharp knife to slice the roll into 6-8 pieces. Wipe the knife with a damp cloth between cuts for clean slices.
- 9Repeat the process with the remaining nori sheets and fillings.
- 10Serve the sushi rolls with soy sauce, wasabi, and pickled ginger.
