Ingredients

• 4 sheets Nori sheets
• 200 grams Crab meat
• 1 large Avocado
• 1 small Cucumber
• 100 grams Cream cheese
• 1 tablespoon Rice vinegar
• 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
• 50 grams Pickled ginger
• 1 teaspoon Wasabi paste

Directions

Step 1

Prepare the ingredients by ensuring the crab meat is well-drained and any excess water is removed. Set aside.

Step 2

Halve the avocado, remove the pit, and carefully scoop out the flesh. Slice the avocado thinly lengthwise.

Step 3

Peel the cucumber and cut it into long, thin strips (julienne) matching the length of the nori sheets.

Step 4

Lay a nori sheet shiny side down on a bamboo sushi mat. If you don't have a mat, use a clean tea towel.

Step 5

Spread approximately 25 grams of cream cheese evenly over the nori sheet, leaving about an inch of space at the top edge.

Step 6

Arrange a quarter of the sliced avocado, cucumber strips, and crab meat across the bottom third of the nori sheet.

Step 7

Drizzle lightly with rice vinegar for taste, if desired.

Step 8

Lift the edge of the sushi mat closest to you, and begin rolling the sushi tightly but gently, tucking in the ingredients as you roll.

Step 9

Wet the top edge of the nori with a little water to seal the roll.

Step 10

Repeat the process for the remaining nori sheets and filling ingredients.

Step 11

Using a sharp, wet knife, slice each roll into 6-8 pieces.

Step 12

Serve with soy sauce, pickled ginger, and wasabi paste on the side.
