Main Ingredients

  • 2 cups sushi rice
  • 2 ½ cups water
  • ½ cup rice vinegar
  • ¼ cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 4 sheets nori (seaweed)
  • 1 cucumber, julienned
  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • 8 oz sushi-grade fish (like tuna or salmon), sliced
  • Soy sauce, for serving
  • Pickled ginger, for serving
  • Wasabi, for serving

Instructions 

  1. Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear.
  2. Combine rice and water in a rice cooker and cook according to the manufacturer's instructions.
  3. In a small saucepan, combine rice vinegar, sugar, and salt. Heat until sugar dissolves. Let cool.
  4. Transfer cooked rice to a large bowl. Gradually fold in the vinegar mixture until rice is well-coated. Let cool to room temperature.
  5. Place a sheet of nori on a bamboo sushi mat. Spread a thin layer of rice over the nori, leaving a 1-inch border at the top.
  6. Arrange cucumber, avocado, and fish in a line along the bottom edge of the rice.
  7. Roll the sushi tightly using the mat, applying gentle pressure. Seal the edge with a little water.
  8. Slice the roll into 6-8 pieces with a sharp knife. Repeat with remaining ingredients.
  9. Serve with soy sauce, pickled ginger, and wasabi.
