Preparation Steps
Prepare Sushi Rice
Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Cook according to package instructions and let it cool slightly.
Layer Nori and Rice
Place a sheet of nori on a bamboo sushi mat. With wet hands, spread a thin layer of sushi rice over the nori, leaving a 1-inch border at the top.
Roll the Sushi
Using the bamboo mat, roll the sushi tightly away from you, pressing gently. Wet the top edge of the nori to seal the roll.
Cut the Roll
Use a sharp knife to cut the roll into 8 equal pieces. Wipe the knife with a damp cloth between cuts for clean edges.
Garnish and Serve
Place the sushi rolls on a serving plate. Drizzle eel sauce over the top, sprinkle with sesame seeds, and serve with wasabi and soy sauce on the side.
