Assemble the Roll
Lay down strips of smoked salmon, cream cheese, and cucumber in a line across the center of the rice. Starting from the bottom, use the sushi mat to roll the nori tightly over the filling. Roll until you reach the uncovered edge of the nori. Wet the edge with a little water to seal the roll.

Slice and Serve
Using a sharp knife, slice the roll into 6-8 pieces. Wipe the knife with a damp cloth between cuts to ensure clean edges. Serve with soy sauce, wasabi, and pickled ginger on the side.
