Crispy Crab Roll Directions

Prepare the Sushi Rice
Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Combine the rice and water in a rice cooker or pot and cook according to package instructions. Once cooked, let it cool slightly.

Season the Rice
In a small bowl, mix rice vinegar, sugar, and salt until dissolved. Gently fold this mixture into the cooked rice. Let the rice cool to room temperature.

Assemble the Roll
Place a nori sheet on a bamboo sushi mat, shiny side down. Moisten your hands and spread a thin layer of sushi rice over the nori, leaving 1 inch at the top edge. Add crab meat, cucumber, and avocado in a line across the center.

Roll it Up
Using the bamboo mat, carefully roll the nori away from you, applying gentle pressure to keep the roll tight. Seal the edge with a little water.

Slice the Roll
Using a sharp knife, slice the roll into 6-8 pieces. Wipe the knife with a damp cloth between cuts for clean slices.
