Ingredients
  

  • 1 Nori Sheet
  • 1/3 Cup Short Grain White Rice
  • 1/3 Cup Water
  • 1 TSP Sugar
  • 1/2 TBSP Rice Vinegar
  • Pinch of Salt
  • 5 Shrimp
  • 1/4 Avocado
  • 1/5 Cucumber

Optional Sauce

  • 1 TBSP Mayo
  • 1 TBSP Siracha
  • Soy Sauce - Keep Seperately

Instructions

  • Rinse your rice until the water is clear
  • Boil 1/3 cup water (or whatever your rice package says) in a small pot, and add in your sugar, rice vinegar, and salt
  • Add in your rice, cover, and set to medium-low for 10-15 minutes, or until cooked. Your rice should be sticky and obviously not hard. Let your rice cool for a few minutes before adding it to your nori sheet.
  • Cut up your avocado into two strips and your cucumber into small matchstick strips.
  • Place your Nori Sheet on your sushi roller or a flat surface, and spread your rice out evenly until all the green is covered. Try not to have clumped areas of rice.
  • Add in your shrimp and avocado in the middle of your roll. Place your cucumber on top of your shrimp and avocado.
  • Roll your sushi. If you're using a sushi roller, this will be easy. If you don't have one grab the edge of your Nori and gently wrap your shrimp & avocado pile. Form the rice around your filling before rolling it over in your cylinder shape.
  • Wait until your nori is cool before cutting into pieces
  • If you're making the siracha mayo sauce, combine both in a bowl and drizzle over your roll once cut.
  • Congratulation, you did the sushi!
