Assemble the Maki
Place a nori sheet on a sushi mat. Wet your hands to prevent sticking, then take a handful of sushi rice and spread it evenly over the nori, leaving a small border at the top. Place the salmon, cucumber, and avocado at the bottom of the rice-covered nori. Drizzle some lemongrass oil mixture over the fillings.

Roll the Maki
Using the sushi mat, carefully roll the nori away from you, pressing gently to form a tight roll. Seal the edge with a little water. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.

Slice and Serve
Slice the sushi rolls into bite-sized pieces using a sharp knife. Serve with pickled ginger, wasabi, and any remaining lemongrass oil mixture.
