Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear, and let it drain for about 15 minutes.
Place the rice and water in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat.
Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let it sit covered for another 10 minutes.
Transfer the hot rice to a large bowl and gently fold in rice vinegar, low-sodium soy sauce, sugar, and salt. Let the rice cool to room temperature.
Cut the cucumber, carrot, and red bell pepper into thin strips approximately 3 inches long.
Lay a nori sheet on a bamboo sushi mat with the shiny side down.
Spread about 100g of the prepared sushi rice on the nori, leaving a 1-inch border at the top.
Arrange a small line of cucumber, carrot, red bell pepper, and a thin line of low-fat fish roe in the center of the rice.
Using the bamboo mat, roll the sushi tightly from the bottom, applying gentle pressure to shape the roll.
Dampen the edge of the nori with a little water to seal the roll. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.
Use a sharp knife to slice each roll into 8 pieces, wiping the knife with a damp cloth between cuts to maintain clean edges.
Serve the sushi with a small amount of wasabi paste and pickled ginger on the side for enhanced flavor.
