Ingredients

• 1 cup Sushi rice
• 1.25 cups Water
• 2 tablespoons Rice vinegar
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 200 grams Sushi-grade salmon, cooked
• 1 unit Avocado, ripe
• 4 sheets Nori sheets
• 1 teaspoon Wasabi paste
• 0 optional Soy sauce

Directions

Step 1

Rinse the sushi rice in a fine mesh sieve under cold water until the water runs clear. This removes excess starch.

Step 2

Combine the rinsed sushi rice and 1.25 cups of water in a medium-sized saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes or until all the water is absorbed.

Step 3

Remove the saucepan from the heat and let it sit, covered, for about 10 minutes to complete the cooking process. This step is crucial for the rice to be perfectly sticky.

Step 4

In a small bowl, mix the rice vinegar and salt until the salt is dissolved completely. Gently fold this mixture into the cooked rice using a wooden spoon or rice paddle. Allow the rice to cool to room temperature.

Step 5

While the rice is cooling, thinly slice the cooked salmon and avocado.

Step 6

Place a nori sheet on a bamboo sushi mat with the shiny side down. Wet your hands with water to prevent sticking, and spread about 1/4 of the cooled rice onto the nori, leaving a 1-inch border at the top.

Step 7

Place a few slices of salmon and avocado in a line about 1 inch from the bottom edge of the nori.

Step 8

If using, add a small amount of wasabi paste along the line of salmon and avocado.

Step 9

Lift the edge of the mat closest to you, and begin rolling the sushi tightly away from you, using the mat to shape and squeeze the roll. Be gentle but firm to create a compact roll.

Step 10

Seal the edge of the nori by wetting it with a little water. Repeat with the remaining ingredients to make four rolls.

Step 11

Using a sharp, moistened knife, slice each roll into 6-8 pieces. Clean the knife between cuts for clean slices.

Step 12

Serve the sushi with optional soy sauce on the side for dipping.
