Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Tuna

    In a bowl, combine the diced ahi tuna, soy sauce, sesame oil, and sriracha. Mix well and let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Spicy Emulsion

    In a small bowl, mix mayonnaise, rice vinegar, and a little more sriracha to taste. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Avocado

    Slice the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh. Cut it into thin slices.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Roll

    On a bamboo sushi mat, lay down a sheet of nori. Spread a thin layer of cooked sushi rice over the nori, leaving a small border at the top. Place a line of marinated tuna, avocado slices, and pickled ginger across the center. Sprinkle tempura flakes and sesame seeds on top.

  5. 5

    Roll It Up

    Using the bamboo mat, carefully roll the sushi away from you, applying gentle pressure to form a tight roll. Seal the edge with a little water.

  6. 6

    Slice and Serve

    Using a sharp knife, slice the roll into bite-sized pieces. Drizzle the spicy emulsion over the top and serve with additional pickled ginger on the side.
