Ingredients:
  • 200.00 gm short-grain rice
  • 20.00 gm caster sugar
  • 100.00 ml rice vinegar
  • 100g fresh fish fillet (such as salmon, tuna, ocean trout or kingfish)
  • 1 small Lebanese cucumber, peeled
  • 1/2 avocado
  • 4 nori sheets
  • Wasabi, to taste (see Notes)
  • Pickled ginger, to serve
  • Japanese soy sauce, to serve
Instructions:
  • Cleanse the rice under cold water, drain thoroughly. Combine rice and 500ml (2 cups) water in a saucepan, bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, simmer without cover for 12-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until water is absorbed. Remove from heat, let sit covered for another 10 minutes.
  • Put the rice in a large bowl. Mix sugar, 2 tablespoons vinegar, and 1 teaspoon salt in another bowl, then pour over the rice. Stir well. Spread the rice on a flat tray lined with aluminum foil to cool until completely cool before using.
  • Select a mix of fillings like fresh salmon, tuna, cucumber, and avocado. Cut the fish and vegetables into 5cm long sticks. Then, mix the remaining vinegar with 300ml cold water in a bowl.
  • Lay 1 nori sheet shiny-side down on a bamboo mat or non-stick baking paper with the longest edge at the top. Dip hands in water mixture to prevent sticking, then evenly spread a quarter of the rice over the bottom two-thirds of the nori, leaving a small border around the edge.
  • Place a delicate streak of wasabi in the center of the rice. Add a small amount of the fish and vegetables next to the wasabi. Carefully lift the edge of the mat nearest to you, then roll it over the filling to seal.
  • Roll the mat to make a complete roll, gently shape it round by rolling back and forth, then slice the rolls at 2cm intervals. Serve with pickled ginger, soy sauce, and extra wasabi.
