Sushi rolls are a crowd favourite! Especially when they’re filled with good quality seafood and fresh vegetables. Our recipe feeds roughly 2 people, and you’ll need a sushi mat. Adjust ingredient portions accordingly – and feel free to personalise your sushi rolls with additional ingredients!

Ingredients:

4 sheets nori
1 cup sushi rice (rinsed)
1 tablespoon seasoned rice vinegar
1/2 cucumber (cut into thin strips)
110 g fresh sushi-grade red salmon
1 medium carrot (grated)
1/2 avocado (cut into thin strips)
1 tablespoon soy sauce

Instructions:

1 Prepare the rice
In a saucepan on high heat, place sushi rice into 1 ½ cups of water. Cover the saucepan and bring it to a boil before reducing the heat to low and cooking until rice is soft and has absorbed the water. Remove from heat.
2 Combine Rice
Combine cooked rice with vinegar in a bowl and stir to prevent rice from becoming clumpy.
3 Roll Sushi
Place 1 nori sheet on a sushi mat with the shiny-side facing down. Spread a quarter of the rice mixture over the nori sheet and make sure you leave a border that’s roughly 3cm wide along the edges.
4 Fill Sushi
Place one-quarter of the avocado along the edge facing you. Top with one quarter each of the salmon, cucumber and carrot.
5 Roll Sushi
Using the sushi mat, roll up the filling and repeat with remaining ingredients.
6 Cut Sushi
Slice each roll into bite-sized pieces. Serve with soy sauce.
