Assemble Sushi Rolls
Place a sheet of nori on a bamboo sushi mat. Wet your hands and spread a thin layer of sushi rice over the nori, leaving a small border at the top. Lay the strips of tuna and cucumber in a line across the center of the rice. Drizzle spicy mayo over the filling.

Roll Sushi
Using the bamboo mat, carefully roll the sushi away from you, applying gentle pressure to form a tight roll. Moisten the edge of the nori with water to seal the roll.

Slice and Serve
Using a sharp knife, slice the roll into 8 equal pieces. Sprinkle sesame seeds on top and serve with additional spicy mayo on the side.
