Ingredients

• 1 cup sushi rice
• 1.25 cups water
• 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 100 grams crab meat
• 1 medium avocado
• 4 sheets nori sheets
• 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
• 1 teaspoon wasabi paste
• 0 for serving soy sauce

Directions

Step 1

Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear to remove excess starch.

Step 2

Combine the rinsed sushi rice and 1.25 cups of water in a rice cooker or saucepan, and cook according to the rice cooker instructions or bring to a boil, then simmer on low heat for 15 minutes with the lid on.

Step 3

While the rice is cooking, mix the rice vinegar, sugar, and salt in a small bowl until dissolved, to create the sushi vinegar.

Step 4

Once the rice is cooked, transfer it to a large bowl and gently fold in the sushi vinegar with a wooden spatula, then allow it to cool to room temperature.

Step 5

In a separate bowl, combine the crab meat with mayonnaise and a dab of wasabi paste, adjusting to taste, to create the crab filling.

Step 6

Peel and pit the avocado, then slice it into thin strips.

Step 7

Place a bamboo sushi mat on a clean, flat surface, then lay a sheet of nori on top with the shiny side facing down.

Step 8

With wet hands, spread a thin, even layer of sushi rice over the nori, leaving an inch of nori exposed at the top edge.

Step 9

Arrange strips of crab filling and avocado along the bottom edge of the rice-covered nori.

Step 10

Begin rolling the sushi tightly from the bottom towards the top using the bamboo mat, pressing gently to shape it into a firm log.

Step 11

Seal the roll by moistening the exposed edge of nori with a little water and pressing it to the roll.

Step 12

Use a sharp knife to slice the roll into 6 to 8 equal pieces, wiping the blade clean between each cut for cleaner slices.

Step 13

Repeat the process with the remaining nori sheets and fillings to make additional rolls.

Step 14

Serve the crab and avocado sushi rolls with soy sauce and additional wasabi on the side for dipping.
