Rinse 1 cup of gluten-free sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear.
In a medium pot, combine the rinsed rice and 1.25 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook for approximately 20 minutes, or according to package instructions.
While the rice cooks, prepare the sushi rice seasoning. Mix 2 tablespoons of rice vinegar, 1 tablespoon of sugar, and 0.5 teaspoon of salt in a small bowl until the sugar dissolves.
Once the rice is cooked, transfer it to a large bowl. Gently fold the rice vinegar mixture into the warm rice using a wooden spoon or rice paddle. Allow the rice to cool to room temperature.
Slice the avocado into thin strips and julienne the cucumber. Set both aside.
Cut the gluten-free imitation crab into thin pieces.
Lay a sheet of gluten-free nori on a bamboo sushi mat with the shiny side facing down. Spread an even layer of the cooled sushi rice over the nori, leaving about 1 inch at the top edge uncovered.
Place a few slices of avocado, cucumber, and imitation crab horizontally across the center of the rice layer.
Using the sushi mat, tightly roll the nori from the bottom edge upward, keeping the roll firm and even. Repeat with the remaining nori sheets and fillings.
For the volcano topping, finely chop the cooked shrimp and mix it with 2 tablespoons of gluten-free mayonnaise and 1.5 teaspoons of gluten-free sriracha in a small bowl.
Preheat your oven's broiler. Spread the shrimp mixture evenly across the tops of the sushi rolls. Place the rolls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and broil for 2-3 minutes until the topping is slightly browned and bubbly.
Carefully remove the rolls from the oven. Let them cool slightly before slicing into bite-sized pieces.
Garnish the sliced rolls with toasted sesame seeds and chopped green onions.
Serve with gluten-free soy sauce or tamari for dipping. Enjoy your gluten-free volcano roll!
