Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 grams Sushi rice
- 3 tablespoons Rice vinegar
- 1.5 tablespoons Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 5 sheets Nori sheets
- 100 grams Fresh sushi-grade salmon
- 100 grams Fresh sushi-grade tuna
- 1 large Cucumber
- 1 ripe Avocado
- 50 milliliters Soy sauce
- 50 grams Pickled ginger
- 10 grams Wasabi paste
Instructions
Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear to remove excess starch.
Cook the rice according to the package instructions or using a rice cooker.
While the rice is cooking, mix the rice vinegar, sugar, and salt in a small saucepan over low heat until the sugar and salt are dissolved.
Transfer the cooked rice to a large bowl and let it cool slightly. Gradually add the vinegar mixture to the rice, gently folding the rice to ensure even distribution.
Cover the seasoned rice with a damp cloth and let it cool to room temperature.
Slice the sushi-grade salmon and tuna into thin strips, set aside.
Peel and remove the pit from the avocado, then cut it into thin slices.
Slice the cucumber lengthwise into thin strips.
Cut each nori sheet in half widthwise using a pair of kitchen scissors.
Place a half sheet of nori on your palm, shiny side down.
Wet your hands with water to prevent sticking, then take a small handful of sushi rice and spread it over half of the nori sheet, leaving a 2-3 cm border at the top.
Arrange a few slices of salmon, tuna, cucumber, and avocado diagonally across the rice.
Optionally add a small dab of wasabi paste.
Roll the nori into a cone shape, starting from one corner and rolling diagonally to the opposite border.
Seal the edge of the nori with a grain of rice to keep the cone closed.
Serve immediately with soy sauce, pickled ginger, and additional wasabi as desired.
