Follow The Directions

01

Step
2 mins

Rinse rice in a strainer until water runs clear. (2 minutes)

02

Step
25 mins

Make the sushi rice: Combine rice and water in a saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook until rice is tender and water is absorbed. (25 minutes)

03

Step
5 mins

Combine rice vinegar, sugar, and salt in a small saucepan over low heat; stir until sugar is dissolved. Pour over rice; stir until rice cools and looks dry. (5 minutes)

04

Step
5 mins

Prepare the sushi rolls: Mix tuna, mayonnaise, chile oil, sesame oil, sriracha sauce, and green onion in a bowl with a fork, mashing to break up some of the chunks. Leave a few chunks intact for texture. (5 minutes)

05

Step
10 mins

Cover a bamboo sushi rolling mat with plastic wrap. Lay 1 nori sheet, shiny-side down, on the mat. Spread a thin layer of rice over the nori. Layer avocado slices across the rice. Flip nori sheet so avocado is against the mat. Spread a generous layer of tuna mixture 3/4 of the way down the back of the nori; top with cucumber matchsticks. (10 minutes)

06

Step
5 mins

Roll up sushi using the rolling mat, tucking in ends with the plastic wrap. Remove plastic wrap and place sushi roll on a plate. (5 minutes)

07

Step
20 mins

Repeat with remaining nori, rice, avocado, tuna mixture, and cucumber. (20 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, try toasting the nori sheets lightly before using them.
Make sure your sushi rice is cooled down before rolling to prevent the nori from getting soggy.
If you don't have chile oil, you can substitute with a pinch of red pepper flakes in the sesame oil.
Feel free to experiment with other fillings like cream cheese, mango, or different types of seafood.

    I was a bit intimidated to make sushi at home, but this recipe made it seem totally doable. Will definitely make again!

  • Scottie Bosco

    The spicy tuna mixture is addictive! I added a bit of lime juice for extra zing.
