Ingredients

• 2 cups Sushi rice
• 2.5 cups Water
• 0.25 cup Rice vinegar
• 2 tablespoons Sugar
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 5 pieces Nori sheets
• 2 sliced Avocado
• 1 thinly sliced Cucumber
• 10 pieces Imitation crab sticks
• 0.25 cup Mayonnaise
• 1 tablespoon Sriracha sauce
• 0.25 cup Soy sauce
• 1 teaspoon Wasabi
• 0.25 cup Pickled ginger

Directions

Step 1

Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear. This removes excess starch for stickier rice.

Step 2

Combine the rinsed sushi rice with 2.5 cups of water in a rice cooker or a medium saucepan. If using a saucepan, bring to a boil, then cover and simmer on low for about 18-20 minutes or until water is absorbed.

Step 3

While rice is cooking, prepare the sushi vinegar. In a small saucepan, combine rice vinegar, sugar, and salt over low heat, stirring until sugar dissolves. Do not boil.

Step 4

Once the rice is cooked, transfer it to a large bowl, gently incorporating the sushi vinegar while cooling. Be careful not to mash the rice.

Step 5

Prepare the spicy mayo sauce by mixing the mayonnaise and Sriracha sauce in a small bowl until smooth. Set aside.

Step 6

Place a nori sheet on a bamboo sushi mat, shiny side down. Dampen your hands with water to prevent sticking and spread about 3/4 cup of prepared sushi rice evenly across the nori, leaving about a 1-inch border at the top.

Step 7

Arrange a few slices of avocado, cucumber, and imitation crab sticks in a line along the bottom edge of the rice.

Step 8

Using the bamboo mat, carefully roll the sushi into a tight cylinder. Moisten the top edge of the nori with water to seal the roll.

Step 9

Repeat with remaining ingredients to make five rolls.

Step 10

Cut each roll into 8 pieces using a sharp, damp knife for clean slices.

Step 11

Serve the sushi rolls with soy sauce, wasabi, and pickled ginger on the side. Drizzle the spicy mayo sauce over the top, or serve it on the side for dipping.
