Ingredients
2
cups
sushi rice
cooked and seasoned
4
nori sheets
8
ounces
sashimi-grade salmon
thinly sliced
1
avocado
thinly sliced
1
cucumber
julienned
Instructions
Place a nori sheet on a sushi mat or clean surface.
Spread a thin layer of sushi rice evenly over the nori, leaving a small border at the top.
Lay salmon slices horizontally across the middle of the rice.
Add avocado and cucumber slices on top of the salmon.
Carefully roll the sushi, using the sushi mat or your hands, tucking in the ingredients as you go.
Gently press the roll to maintain its shape.
Using a sharp knife, cut the roll into 6-8 even pieces.
Repeat steps 1-7 for the remaining ingredients.
Serve with soy sauce, wasabi, and pickled ginger.
Notes
Always use sushi-grade fish for safety and best taste.
Wet your hands or use a sushi mat when working with sushi rice to prevent sticking.
Slice ingredients thinly and uniformly for easy rolling and even distribution of flavors.
Gently press the sushi roll when rolling to maintain its shape.
Practice makes perfect – don't be discouraged if your first rolls aren't picture-perfect.
