Instructions

Cook your rice according to package instructions (I made mine in the instant pot). Once done, place in a large bowl in the fridge to cool down. Once rice is mostly cool, mix in the rice vinegar and white wine vinegar and set aside.

Assemble the sushi by placing a nori sheet on a sushi mat**. Spread 2/3 cup of the cooked rice over the nori sheet, leaving about 2/3 of an inch clean on one end (see video). Top with some of the avocado and any other veggies you’re using. Roll the nori sheet over top of the fillings and continue to gently and *tightly* roll the sheet until it’s all the way rolled up. Repeat with the remaining ingredients (I ended up with 5-6 rolls, depending on how I filled them).

Slice into 1 inch pieces and ENJOY! I LOVE mine with a little sliced ginger and a touch of soy sauce.

Notes

*You want Japanese SHORT GRAIN rice. It has a distinctly sticky texture to it that is essential for making sushi. Long grain rice, such as basmati, will not work in this recipe (I’ve tried it!).

**this can be done without a sushi mat as well!

For the spicy mayo, I simply mixed together equal parts mayo and sriracha

Tips & Tricks (5)

Cool Your Rice Properly ❄️
Spread cooked sushi rice on a baking sheet and fan it while sprinkling with rice vinegar and white wine vinegar to cool quickly and achieve the perfect texture—warm rice won't hold together properly.
Slice Avocado at the Last Moment 🥑
Cut avocado just before rolling to prevent browning and oxidation, ensuring creamy, vibrant slices that won't darken your presentation.
Wet Your Hands and Knife 💧
Keep your hands and knife blade constantly moistened with water mixed with a pinch of salt to prevent rice from sticking and create clean, precise cuts without tearing the nori.
Toast Your Nori Lightly 🔥
Lightly pass the nori sheet over a flame for 1-2 seconds per side to enhance its nutty flavor and improve its grip on the rice, making rolling significantly easier.
Use a Bamboo Mat Strategically 🎋
Cover your bamboo mat with plastic wrap before rolling to prevent rice from sticking, making cleanup effortless and allowing you to reuse the mat multiple times without residue buildup.
