Prepare Sushi Rice

  1. 1

    Cook the Rice

    Rinse sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Cook according to package instructions. Once cooked, let it cool.

    Season the Rice

    In a small bowl, mix rice vinegar, sugar, and salt until dissolved. Gently fold this mixture into the cooled sushi rice.

    Make Tempura Batter

    In a bowl, mix tempura batter mix with cold water until just combined. Do not overmix.

  2. 4

Assemble the Roll

  1. 5

    Prepare Nori Sheet

    Lay a sheet of nori on a bamboo sushi mat, shiny side down. Wet your hands and spread a thin layer of sushi rice over the nori, leaving a small border at the top.

  2. 6

    Add Fillings

    Place tempura prawns, avocado slices, cucumber strips, and masago in the center of the rice.

  3. 7

    Roll the Sushi

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

    Using a sharp knife, slice the roll into bite-sized pieces. Serve with soy sauce, wasabi, and pickled ginger.
