Assemble the Rolls
Lay a nori sheet on a bamboo sushi mat with the shiny side facing down. Wet your hands and grab a handful of sushi rice, spreading it evenly over the nori, leaving about 1 inch at the top. Arrange the salmon, cucumber, and green onion in a line across the middle of the rice.

Roll the Sushi
Using the bamboo mat, roll the nori away from you, tucking in the filling as you go. Roll tightly until the edge of the nori is reached. Wet the edge with a little water to seal the roll.
