Preparation Time:

Difficulty:

Ingredients:

  • 200g sushi rice
  • 300ml water
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 4 sheets nori (seaweed)
  • 100g raw salmon, sliced
  • 100g avocado, sliced
  • 50g cucumber, julienned
  • Soy sauce for serving
  • Pickled ginger for serving
  • Wasabi for serving

Kitchen Tools Needed:

  • Bamboo sushi mat
  • Sharp knife
  • Rice cooker
  • Small bowl
  • Plastic wrap

Instructions:

  • Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Combine the rice and water in a rice cooker and cook according to the manufacturer's instructions.
  • Once the rice is cooked, transfer it to a bowl. Mix rice vinegar, sugar, and salt in a separate bowl until dissolved, then gently fold this mixture into the hot rice. Allow it to cool.
  • Place a sheet of plastic wrap on the bamboo mat. Lay a sheet of nori on top, shiny side down.
  • Wet your hands to prevent sticking, and then take a handful of sushi rice and evenly spread it over the nori, leaving a little margin at the top.
  • Arrange the salmon, avocado, and cucumber in a line along the bottom edge of the rice-covered nori.
  • Using the bamboo mat, carefully roll the sushi away from you, pressing gently to form a tight roll.
  • Once rolled, use a sharp knife to slice the sushi into bite-sized pieces, wiping the knife with a damp cloth between cuts.
  • Serve the sushi rolls with soy sauce, pickled ginger, and wasabi.
