Method
Preparation Steps
Prepare Sushi Rice
Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Combine the rinsed rice and water in a rice cooker and cook according to the manufacturer's instructions. Once cooked, let it steam for 10 minutes off the heat.
Season the Rice
In a small bowl, mix the rice vinegar, sugar, and salt until dissolved. Gently fold this mixture into the cooked rice while it's still warm. Allow the rice to cool to room temperature.
Prepare Filling
In a bowl, combine the minced yellowtail and chopped green onions. Mix well and set aside.
Assemble Hand Rolls
Lay a nori sheet on a clean surface, shiny side down. Wet your hands and take a small handful of sushi rice, spreading it evenly over the nori, leaving the top edge empty. Place a spoonful of the yellowtail mixture at the bottom of the nori. Roll the nori tightly from the bottom, forming a cone shape.
Serve
Serve the hand rolls with soy sauce and wasabi on the side for dipping.
