Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear.
Combine 1 cup of sushi rice and 1.25 cups of water in a rice cooker. Cook according to the rice cooker's instructions.
Once cooked, transfer the rice to a large bowl and let it cool for about 10 minutes.
In a small bowl, mix the rice vinegar, sugar, and salt until dissolved. Pour over the slightly cooled sushi rice and gently fold to combine. Do not mash the rice.
Prepare the spicy mayo by mixing the light mayonnaise and sriracha sauce in a small bowl. Adjust the spiciness according to your preference.
Peel the cucumber, remove the seeds, and cut it into thin strips.
Halve the avocado, remove the pit, peel, and slice it thinly.
Take a nori sheet and place it shiny side down on a bamboo sushi mat covered with plastic wrap.
Dampen your hands to prevent sticking, then spread an even layer of prepared sushi rice over the nori sheet, leaving a 1-inch border at the top.
Sprinkle with sesame seeds over the rice.
Carefully flip the nori sheet over so the rice side is facing down.
Place a few slices of cucumber, avocado, and 2 pieces of imitation crab sticks along the bottom edge of the nori.
Roll the bamboo mat over the filling and tuck it in tightly, then continue to roll to the top edge, creating a firm roll.
Moisten the top border of the nori to seal the roll.
Repeat for the remaining nori sheets and fillings, making a total of 4 rolls.
Using a sharp, wet knife, cut each roll into 8 pieces.
Serve the sushi rolls with additional spicy mayo, soy sauce, and wasabi on the side. Enjoy!
