Ingredients

• 200 grams Sushi rice
• 250 ml Water
• 2 tablespoons Rice vinegar
• 1 teaspoon Sugar
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 200 grams Fresh prawns
• 4 whole Nori sheets
• 0.5 whole Cucumber
• 2 tablespoons Low-fat mayonnaise
• 4 tablespoons Soy sauce
• 1 teaspoon Wasabi paste

Directions

Step 1

Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear to remove excess starch.

Step 2

Combine the rinsed rice and 250ml water in a saucepan, cover with a lid, and bring to a boil over medium heat.

Step 3

Reduce the heat to low and let it cook for 15 minutes or until all the water is absorbed.

Step 4

Once cooked, remove from heat and let the rice sit, covered, for 10 minutes.

Step 5

Mix the rice vinegar, sugar, and salt in a small bowl. Gently fold this mixture into the cooked rice and let it cool to room temperature.

Step 6

Peel and devein the prawns, then boil them in salted water for 2-3 minutes until they turn pink. Drain and let them cool.

Step 7

Slice the cucumber into thin matchstick-sized pieces.

Step 8

Place a nori sheet shiny side down on a bamboo sushi mat. Spread a quarter of the rice mixture over the nori, leaving a 1-inch border at the top.

Step 9

Arrange prawn slices, cucumber, and a thin line of low-fat mayonnaise across the center of the rice.

Step 10

Roll the sushi tightly using the bamboo mat, applying gentle pressure to create a compact roll.

Step 11

Repeat with the remaining ingredients to make four rolls in total.

Step 12

Using a sharp knife, slice each roll into 6-8 pieces, cleaning the knife with a damp cloth between cuts to prevent sticking.

Step 13

Serve with soy sauce and a small dab of wasabi paste on the side.
