Hand Roll Ingredients

Method

Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Spicy Tuna Filling

    In a mixing bowl, combine the diced sushi-grade tuna, mayonnaise, sriracha sauce, and finely chopped green onion. Mix well until the tuna is evenly coated. Adjust the sriracha to taste for desired spiciness.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Cucumber

    Peel the cucumber and cut it into thin matchsticks or julienne strips.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Hand Rolls

    Lay a nori sheet shiny side down on a bamboo sushi mat or a clean surface. Wet your hands and grab a handful of sushi rice, spreading it evenly on the nori, leaving about 1 inch at the top edge. Place a spoonful of the spicy tuna mixture and a few cucumber strips on the rice.

  4. 4

    Roll it Up

    Starting from the bottom, roll the nori up and over the filling tightly, using the mat to help shape it into a cone. Seal the edge of the nori with a little water.

  5. 5

    Garnish and Serve

    Sprinkle sesame seeds on top of the filled hand rolls and serve immediately. Enjoy your spicy tuna hand rolls with soy sauce or wasabi, if desired.
