Ingredients

• 1 cup Sushi rice
• 1.25 cups Water
• 3 tablespoons Rice vinegar
• 1 tablespoon Sugar
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 150 grams Fresh fish fillet (salmon or tuna)
• 1 medium Avocado
• 4 pieces Nori sheets
• 0 for dipping Soy sauce
• 0 optional Wasabi
• 0 optional Pickled ginger

Directions

Step 1

Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear. This removes excess starch and prevents the rice from becoming too sticky.

Step 2

In a saucepan, combine the rinsed rice with the water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 20 minutes or until the water is absorbed and the rice is tender.

Step 3

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

Step 4

Once the rice is cooked, transfer it to a large bowl and add the vinegar mixture. Use a wooden spatula or rice paddle to gently fold the vinegar into the rice, being careful not to mash the grains. Let the rice cool to room temperature.

Step 5

While the rice is cooling, slice the fish fillet into thin strips and peel, pit, and slice the avocado into similar sized strips.

Step 6

Place a bamboo sushi mat on a clean surface and lay a piece of plastic wrap over it. Place a sheet of nori, shiny side down, on the plastic wrap.

Step 7

Dampen your hands with water to prevent the rice from sticking, then take about 1/2 cup of the cooled sushi rice and spread it evenly over the nori sheet, leaving a 1-inch border at the top edge.

Step 8

Arrange a few strips of fish and avocado across the center of the rice.

Step 9

Using the bamboo mat, carefully lift the edge of the nori closest to you and roll it over the filling, gently pressing and rolling to form a log shape. Use the mat to roll the sushi tightly.

Step 10

Wet the top border of the nori with a little water to seal the roll. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.

Step 11

With a sharp knife, slice each roll into 8 equal pieces, wiping the blade with a damp cloth between cuts to ensure clean slices.

Step 12

Serve the sushi rolls with soy sauce, wasabi, and pickled ginger, as desired.
