Ingredients

  • 2 cups sushi rice
  • 2 1/2 cups water
  • 1/2 cup rice vinegar
  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 4 sheets nori (seaweed)
  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • 1 small cucumber, julienned
  • 1 carrot, julienned
  • 1/2 bell pepper, julienned
  • Soy sauce for dipping (optional)
  • Pickled ginger (optional)
  • Wasabi (optional)

Instructions

  1. 1

    Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear.

  2. 2

    In a medium pot, combine rinsed rice and water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes or until water is absorbed.

  3. 3

    In a small bowl, mix the rice vinegar, sugar, and salt until dissolved. Stir this mixture into the cooked rice and let it cool to room temperature.

  4. 4

    On a bamboo sushi mat, place a sheet of nori, shiny side down.

  5. 5

    Spread a thin layer of sushi rice over the nori, leaving about an inch of space at the top.

  6. 6

    Arrange the avocado, cucumber, carrot, and bell pepper strips in a line across the rice, about 2 inches from the bottom of the nori sheet.

  7. 7

    Using the mat, carefully roll the sushi away from you, applying gentle pressure to keep it tight. Seal the edge with a little water.

  8. 8

    Slice the rolls into bite-sized pieces and serve with soy sauce, pickled ginger, and wasabi if desired.
