Assemble Sushi Rolls
Lay a nori sheet on a bamboo sushi mat. Spread an even layer of sushi rice over the nori, leaving a 1-inch border at the top. Place slices of fish and other desired fillings (like avocado or cucumber) in the center. Roll the sushi tightly using the mat, sealing the edge with a little water.
