Instructions

Prep Your Rice: Rinse sushi rice under cold water until clear. Cook according to package instructions (about 20 minutes) until tender and sticky.
Season Your Rice: In a bowl, gently fold together cooked rice with rice vinegar, sugar, and salt while still warm. Let cool slightly.
Prepare Fillings: Slice fresh fish into strips and cut cucumber and avocado into thin matchsticks.
Assemble the Roll: Place a nori sheet shiny side down on a bamboo mat. Spread about 1 cup of seasoned rice evenly over the nori, leaving space at the top edge. Layer fish, avocado, and cucumber along the bottom edge.
Roll It Up: With wet fingers, lift the bamboo mat's edge closest to you and roll tightly away from you. Seal the edge with a bit of water.
Slice & Serve: Use a sharp knife dipped in water to slice into bite-sized pieces. Drizzle with spicy mayo and eel sauce before serving.
