Salmon Roll Recipe

Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Sushi Rice

   Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Cook the rice according to package instructions. Once cooked, let it cool slightly and season with a mixture of rice vinegar, sugar, and salt to taste.

2. 2

   Prepare the Ingredients

   While the rice cools, slice the salmon into thin strips, cucumber into thin matchsticks, and avocado into slices. Prepare the spicy mayo by mixing mayonnaise with Sriracha to taste.

3. 3

   Assemble the Rolls

   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 about an inch at the top edge. Place a line of spicy salmon, chili cucumber, and avocado in the center.

4. 4

   Roll the Sushi

   Using the sushi mat, carefully roll the nori away from you, applying gentle pressure to keep the roll tight. Seal the edge of the nori with a little water.

   Slice and Serve

   Using a sharp knife, slice the roll into 6-8 pieces. Drizzle with eel sauce and a squeeze of lemon juice. Garnish with sesame seeds if desired. Serve immediately.
