Ingredients

Method

Directions

1

Prepare the Shrimp

In a skillet over medium heat, add the shrimp and season with salt and black pepper. Cook until the shrimp turn pink and opaque, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.

2

Make Spicy Sauce

In a small bowl, mix the Sriracha sauce and mayonnaise together until well combined. Set aside.

3

Prepare Sushi Rice

In a large bowl, mix the cooked sushi rice with rice vinegar. Let it cool slightly.

4

Assemble the Roll

Lay a nori sheet on a bamboo sushi mat or a clean surface. Spread a thin layer of sushi rice over the nori, leaving a small border at the top. Add a few shrimp, cucumber, and avocado slices in the center of the rice. Drizzle with the spicy sauce.

5

Roll It Up

Using the bamboo mat, carefully roll the nori away from you, tucking in the filling as you go. Roll tightly but not too tight to avoid squeezing out the filling.

6

Slice and Serve

Once rolled, slice the roll into bite-sized pieces with a sharp knife. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and serve with extra spicy sauce on the side.
