Assemble the Roll
Lay a sheet of nori on a bamboo sushi mat. Wet your hands to prevent sticking, then spread a thin layer of sushi rice over the nori, leaving about 1 inch at the top. Place a line of the scallop mixture and a few cucumber strips along the bottom edge of the rice.

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

Slice and Serve
Using a sharp knife, slice the roll into 6-8 pieces. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and top with masago if desired. Serve with soy sauce and wasabi.
