Ingredients
- Nori
- Canned tuna
- Kewpie mayo
- Avocado (1)
- Sushi rice (3 cups)
- Sushi seasoning
- Cod roe (optional)
Method
- Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear and drain
- Cook the rice according to the package instructions or use a rice cooker
- While the rice is cooking, mix the tuna with the kewpie mayo, slice the avocado and cover a bamboo mat with cling wrap
- While the rice is still warm, gently fold in the rice vinegar and spread on a tray to cool
- Place a nori sheet shiny side down on your bamboo mat
- With wet fingers, evenly spread a thin layer of sushi rice over the nori, leaving about an inch or so uncovered at the top
- Use a spoon or fork to spread a layer of the tuna and mayo along the bottom edge of the rice-covered nori, then place some slices of avocado on top
- Lift the edge of the bamboo mat closest to you and roll it over the fillings, pressing gently but firmly. Continue rolling, peeling back the mat as you go, until you have a complete roll
- Moisten the uncovered strip of nori at the top with a bit of water to help seal the roll
- With a sharp, wet knife, slice the roll into bite-sized pieces
- Serve the sushi with soy sauce, wasabi, and pickled ginger on the side
