Directions
Prepare Sushi Rice
Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Cook the rice according to package instructions. Once cooked, mix rice vinegar, sugar, and salt in a small bowl and gently fold into the rice. Allow to cool.
Prepare the Filling
Finely chop the tuna belly and green onions. In a bowl, mix the chopped tuna with a little soy sauce and wasabi to taste.
Assemble the Maki
Lay a sheet of nori on a bamboo sushi mat. Wet your hands and spread a thin layer of sushi rice over the nori, leaving a small border at the top. Place the tuna mixture and a few pieces of green onion in the center of the rice.
Roll the Maki
Using the bamboo mat, carefully roll the nori away from you, applying gentle pressure to form a tight roll. Seal the edge of the nori with a little water.
Slice and Serve
Using a sharp knife, slice the rolled maki into 6 equal pieces. Serve with soy sauce and additional wasabi on the side.
