Spicy Tuna Mayo Sushi

Ingredients (Makes 6 small rolls or 12 big rolls):

• 1 can of tuna in water, drained
• 1 avocado
• 1 japanese cucumber
• 3 nori sheets, halved¹
• hot sauce
• mayonnaise
• 1 tbsp sesame seeds
• 1 batch of cooked & seasoned sushi rice² (I used ~¾ US cup uncooked short-grain rice)

Directions:

Prepare ingredients:

1. Add drained tuna into a small bowl. Mix in hot sauce and mayonnaise to taste.
2. Halve an avocado. Remove the pit and skin. Slice thinly.
3. Cut the cucumber to match the length your sushi rolls will be, then julienne.

To assemble:

1. Lay a nori sheet, shiny side down. Wet your hands and add a handful of cooked rice to nori. Spread to a thin even layer.
2. Sprinkle some sesame seeds.
3. Add seasoned tuna, cucumbers, and avocado slices near the bottom of the nori sheet.
4. Roll the sushi up firmly to keep the ingredients in place.
5. Cut into bite-sized pieces and enjoy!

Notes: 

1. I halved the nori sheets to make it easier to roll without a bamboo mat. ↩︎
2. Recipe from JustOneCookbook. I skip the soaking of rice on days where I have no time (add a tad more water). Experiment to see what works for you! ↩︎
