1

Cut cucumber into 1/8th slices by first cutting a half piece in half and then at a 45° angle.

2

Cut tuna into strips of about 1.5cm by 1.5cm (3/5 of an inch by 3/5 of an inch).

3

Prepare the sushi mat with the seaweed sheet placed horizontally.

4

Wet your hands to prevent sticking while handling sushi rice.

5

Take 90g (about 3oz) of sushi rice and spread it evenly over the nori, covering about three and a half strips without squashing the rice.

6

Place cucumber with the skin facing the rice and push it back to create a rice edge.

7

Place the tuna slices in the middle of the rice.

8

Use the mat to roll the sushi, bringing the edge of the seaweed to touch the edge of the cucumber and seal it.

9

Flip the roll over and compress it with the mat, pressing harder where the cucumber is for a tear shape.

10

Cut the roll into eight pieces by first cutting in half, then in half again, and each of these in half.
