Sushi Ingredients

Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare Sushi Rice

    Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Cook in a rice cooker or pot according to package instructions. Once cooked, transfer to a bowl and mix with rice vinegar, sugar, and salt. Allow to cool.

  2. 2

    Prepare Spicy Scallop Mixture

    In a bowl, combine the chopped scallops and Sriracha sauce. Mix well and set aside.

  3. 3

    Prepare Fillings

    Slice the salmon, julienne the cucumber, and slice the avocado.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Rolls

    Place a sheet of nori on a bamboo sushi mat. Wet your hands and take a handful of sushi rice, spreading it evenly over the nori, leaving a small border at the top. Place a line of the spicy scallop mixture, salmon, cucumber, and avocado across the center of the rice.

  5. 5

    Roll the Sushi

    Using the bamboo mat, carefully roll the sushi away from you, pressing gently but firmly to keep the roll tight. Seal the edge with a bit of water.

  6. 6

    Cut and Serve

    Using a sharp knife, slice the roll into 6-8 pieces. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and serve with soy sauce and wasabi on the side.
