Ingredients

• 200 grams Sushi-grade tuna
• 2 tablespoons Gluten-free soy sauce
• 1 tablespoons Sriracha sauce
• 2 tablespoons Mayonnaise
• 1.5 cups Sushi rice
• 3 tablespoons Rice vinegar
• 1 tablespoons Sugar
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 4 sheets Nori seaweed sheets
• 1 tablespoons Toasted sesame seeds
• 0 Optional: Gluten-free pickled ginger
• 0 Optional: Wasabi

Directions

Step 1

Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear.

Step 2

Cook the sushi rice according to the package instructions.

Step 3

In a small saucepan, heat rice vinegar, sugar, and salt over low heat until dissolved. Remove from heat and let cool.

Step 4

Once the sushi rice is cooked, transfer it to a large bowl and gently fold in the rice vinegar mixture. Let the rice cool to room temperature.

Step 5

In a small bowl, combine gluten-free soy sauce, Sriracha sauce, and mayonnaise to make the spicy mayo.

Step 6

Dice the sushi-grade tuna into small cubes and mix it with half of the spicy mayo. Reserve the other half of the sauce for drizzling or serving.

Step 7

Place a sheet of nori onto a bamboo sushi mat, shiny side facing down.

Step 8

Spread a thin, even layer of sushi rice across the nori, leaving about 1 inch at the top edge clear for sealing.

Step 9

Sprinkle toasted sesame seeds over the rice.

Step 10

Flip the nori sheet over so the rice faces down. Place a small line of the spicy tuna mixture along the center of the nori sheet.

Step 11

Using the bamboo mat, tightly roll the nori from the bottom edge, pressing gently but firmly to form a tight roll.

Step 12

Seal the roll by moistening the clear edge of nori with a bit of water and pressing it to close.

Step 13

Using a sharp knife, slice the roll into even pieces, wiping the knife with a damp cloth between slices for clean cuts.

Step 14

Repeat the process with the remaining nori sheets and ingredients.

Step 15

Serve the gluten-free spicy tuna rolls with additional spicy mayo, gluten-free soy sauce, pickled ginger, and wasabi as desired.
