Sushi Rice

Fillings

Nori and Garnish

Method

Prepare Sushi Rice

  1. 1

    Rinse the rice

    Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear to remove excess starch.

  2. 2

    Cook the rice

    In a rice cooker or pot, combine the rinsed sushi rice and water. Cook according to rice cooker instructions or bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes.

  3. 3

    Season the rice

    In a small saucepan, combine rice vinegar, sugar, and salt. Heat over low until sugar dissolves. Once rice is cooked, transfer to a large bowl and gently fold in the vinegar mixture. Allow to cool to room temperature.

Prepare Fillings

  1. 4

    Slice the avocado

    Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and slice thinly.

  2. 5

    Slice the cucumber

    Cut the cucumber in half lengthwise and slice into thin strips.

  3. 6

    Prepare crab sticks

    Shred or cut the crab sticks into thin strips.

Assemble the Roll

  1. 7

    Lay out the nori

    Place a sheet of nori shiny side down on a bamboo sushi mat.

  2. 8

    Add sushi rice

    Wet your hands to prevent sticking. Take a handful of sushi rice and evenly spread it over the nori, leaving a 1-inch border at the top.

  3. 9

    Add fillings

    Place slices of avocado, cucumber, crab sticks, and a layer of cream cheese in the center of the rice.

  4. 10

    Roll the sushi

    Starting from the bottom, carefully roll up the sushi tightly using the bamboo mat, applying gentle pressure. Seal the edge of the nori with a little water.

  5. 11

    Slice the roll

    Use a sharp, wet knife to slice the roll into 6-8 pieces. Clean the knife between cuts to maintain clean edges.

  6. 12

    Garnish and serve

    Sprinkle tempura flakes on top and serve with soy sauce, wasabi, and pickled ginger on the side.
