Ingredients
- 4 oz Fresh tuna (sashimi-grade)
- 1 medium Avocado
- 1 large Cucumber
- 2 tbsp Cream cheese
- 2 tbsp Soy sauce (or coconut aminos for gluten-free)
- 1 tsp Lime juice
- 1 tsp Sesame seeds
- 0.5 tsp Wasabi (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Wash the cucumber and cut off the ends. Using a mandoline or a vegetable peeler, slice the cucumber lengthwise into long, thin strips.
Step 2
Cut the fresh tuna into strips approximately 1/4 inch wide and 3-4 inches long.
Step 3
Peel and pit the avocado, then slice it into thin strips of similar length as the tuna.
Step 4
Lay two overlapping cucumber slices on a clean flat surface, forming a wider base for rolling.
Step 5
Spread a small amount of cream cheese onto the cucumber slices using a knife to create an even layer.
Step 6
Place one or two strips of tuna and avocado on one end of the cucumber slice.
Step 7
Beginning from the end with the filling, carefully roll the cucumber slices up tightly, using your fingers to guide the roll as you go.
Step 8
Repeat the process with the remaining cucumber slices, tuna, and avocado until all ingredients are used up.
Step 9
Sprinkle the rolls with sesame seeds for garnish.
Step 10
In a small bowl, mix soy sauce (or coconut aminos) and lime juice. Add wasabi, if desired, and mix thoroughly to form a dipping sauce.
Step 11
Serve the rolls fresh with the dipping sauce on the side.
