Ingredients
- 1 can Canned tuna (in water, drained)
- 2 tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon Sriracha
- 1 cup Cooked sushi rice
- 2 sheets Nori sheets (seaweed sheets)
- 1 small Cucumber, julienned
- 0.5 whole Avocado, sliced
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce (for dipping)
- 1 teaspoon Optional sesame seeds (for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
1. In a small bowl, mix the drained canned tuna with mayonnaise and sriracha until evenly combined. Adjust the level of spiciness by adding more or less sriracha to your taste.
Step 2
2. Prepare your station by laying out the nori sheets on a clean, flat surface. If desired, you can lightly toast the nori sheets over a gas flame for a second to enhance flavor.
Step 3
3. Divide the cooked sushi rice evenly between the two nori sheets and spread it in a thin, even layer over one side of each sheet, leaving about 1 inch of space at the top.
Step 4
4. Place a thin layer of the spicy tuna mixture along the bottom edge of each sheet, followed by julienned cucumber and sliced avocado.
Step 5
5. Starting from the bottom edge where the filling is, gently roll the nori over the filling, pressing as you go to form a compact roll. Wet the top edge of the nori with a bit of water to seal the roll.
Step 6
6. Slice each roll into bite-sized pieces with a sharp knife. Clean the knife with a damp cloth after every cut for clean slices.
Step 7
7. Arrange on a plate, sprinkle with sesame seeds (if using), and serve with soy sauce for dipping.
