Ingredients

• 1 cup Sushi rice
• 1.25 cups Water
• 2 tablespoons Rice vinegar
• 1 tablespoon Sugar
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 4 ounces Fresh salmon
• 1 medium Avocado
• 4 sheets Nori sheets
• 0.5 small Cucumber
• 1 teaspoon Wasabi
• 1 tablespoon Pickled ginger

Directions

Step 1

Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Combine the rice and 1.25 cups of water in a rice cooker or saucepan, and cook according to the rice cooker instructions or bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cover for 15 minutes.

Step 2

While the rice is cooking, mix the rice vinegar, sugar, and salt in a small bowl until dissolved.

Step 3

Once the rice is cooked, transfer it to a large bowl and gently fold in the vinegar mixture with a wooden spatula. Let it cool to room temperature.

Step 4

Slice the salmon into thin strips, approximately 1/4 inch thick.

Step 5

Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and slice it into thin strips.

Step 6

Peel the cucumber and cut it into long, thin matchsticks.

Step 7

Place a sheet of nori on a bamboo sushi mat, shiny side down.

Step 8

Dip your hands in water to prevent sticking, then spread about 1/2 cup of sushi rice over the nori, leaving a 1-inch border at the top edge.

Step 9

Lay a few strips of salmon, avocado, and cucumber horizontally across the center of the rice.

Step 10

Using the sushi mat, carefully roll the nori over the filling, holding the ingredients in place, and apply gentle pressure to shape the roll. Continue rolling until the rice meets the nori border.

Step 11

Seal the edge of the nori with a little water using your finger.

Step 12

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

Step 13

Repeat the process with the remaining ingredients to make additional rolls.

Step 14

Serve the rolls with wasabi and pickled ginger on the side.
