Ingredients:
- 2 cups sushi rice
- 2 1/2 cups water
- 1/4 cup rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 4 nori (seaweed) sheets
- 1/2 lb sushi-grade salmon or tuna, sliced
- 1 avocado, sliced
- 1 cucumber, julienned
- Soy sauce, pickled ginger, and wasabi (for serving)
Instructions:
- Prepare the Sushi Rice:
Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear. In a medium saucepan, combine the rice and water. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let it sit for another 10 minutes with the lid on. - Season the Rice:
In a small bowl, mix the rice vinegar, sugar, and salt until dissolved. Gently fold this mixture into the cooked rice, being careful not to mash the grains. Let the rice cool to room temperature. - Assemble the Sushi Rolls:
Place a sheet of nori on a bamboo sushi mat (or a clean kitchen towel). Spread a thin layer of sushi rice over the nori, leaving about 1 inch of space at the top edge. Add your desired fillings: a few slices of salmon or tuna, avocado, and cucumber in a line across the middle of the rice. - Roll the Sushi:
Using the bamboo mat, carefully roll the sushi from the bottom, applying gentle pressure to keep it tight. Seal the roll by lightly moistening the edge of the nori with water. Repeat for the remaining rolls. - Slice and Serve:
Using a sharp knife, slice the rolls into bite-sized pieces. Serve with soy sauce, pickled ginger, and wasabi on the side.
