Homemade Sushi

Hi, bloggers! In this new post, I’m going to show you how to make sushi that’s super easy, quickly and most importantly, delicious!


Ingredients:


1 cup of sushi rice (or short-grain white rice)

2 tablespoons of rice vinegar (or white vinegar with a pinch of sugar)

3 sheets of nori seaweed

1 can of tuna or 4 surimi sticks (imitation crab sticks)

½ cucumber, cut into thin strips (seedless)

½ avocado, cut into strips

Mayonnaise to taste

Soy sauce for dipping

Optional:

Sushi mat (makisu) or a clean towel with plastic wrap


Instructions:

1. Cook the rice: Rinse the rice several times until the water runs clear. Cook it with 1 ¼ cups of water. Once done, let it sit for 10 minutes and mix with the vinegar.

2. Prepare the filling: Mix the tuna or surimi with mayonnaise. Have the cucumber and avocado strips ready.

3. Make the sushi: Place a sheet of nori on the mat. Wet your hands and spread a thin layer of rice on the bottom half of the nori. Add a line of filling (tuna or surimi), cucumber, and avocado near the bottom edge. Carefully roll it up, pressing gently with the mat to form the roll.

4. Cut and serve: With a wet knife, cut the roll into 6–8 pieces. Serve with soy sauce.
