Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear.
Combine the rinsed rice and water in a rice cooker and cook according to the manufacturer's instructions; alternatively, bring to a boil, then reduce to low heat, cover and simmer until the water is absorbed, about 20 minutes.
Once the rice is cooked, transfer it to a large bowl. In a small bowl, mix rice vinegar, sugar, and salt until dissolved. Pour the vinegar mixture over the rice and combine gently. Allow the rice to cool to room temperature.
Peel and devein the shrimp if necessary, then cook them until just done, or use pre-cooked shrimp if preferred.
Place a bamboo sushi mat on a clean surface, then place one sheet of nori on the mat. With wet hands, spread a thin even layer of sushi rice over two-thirds of the nori sheet. Leave the top third bare.
Arrange a few slices of avocado and a strip of cucumber across the center of the rice. Place 2-3 pieces of shrimp on top.
Using the bamboo mat, start rolling the nori away from you, keeping it tight with gentle pressure. Seal the roll by moistening the end of the nori with water.
Using a sharp knife, cut the roll into 6 equal pieces. Repeat the process with the remaining ingredients to make two more rolls.
Serve the sushi rolls with soy sauce, wasabi, and pickled ginger on the side.
