Ingredients
- 300 g Sushi rice
- 450 ml Water
- 6 EL Rice vinegar
- 2 EL Sugar
- 1 TL Salt
- 200 g Sushi-grade salmon fillet
- 200 g Sushi-grade tuna fillet
- 6 Blatt Nori seaweed sheets
- 1 Avocado
- ½ Cucumber
- 2 EL Toasted sesame seeds
- Als Beilage Wasabi
- Als Beilage Pickled ginger
- Als Beilage Soy sauce
Instructions
- Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Bring the rice to a boil in a pot with 450 ml of water, then reduce heat and simmer, covered, for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let the rice rest for another 10 minutes.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the rice vinegar, sugar, and salt until the sugar and salt are fully dissolved. This is your sushi vinegar.
- Transfer the cooked rice to a large wooden bowl or non-metallic dish. Drizzle the sushi vinegar evenly over the rice, gently folding with a spatula to avoid mashing the grains.
- Allow the rice to cool to room temperature while you prepare the other ingredients. Slice the salmon, tuna, avocado, and cucumber into thin strips.
- Place a nori sheet, shiny side down, on a bamboo rolling mat. Moisten your hands and spread a thin, even layer of rice over the nori, leaving a small border at the top.
- Arrange your desired fillings (salmon, tuna, avocado, cucumber) in a line near the bottom edge of the rice.
- Using the bamboo mat, roll tightly from the bottom upward to form a firm roll. Moisten the top edge of the nori to seal the roll. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.
- Slice each roll into 6-8 even pieces with a sharp, wet knife. Sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds and serve immediately with wasabi, pickled ginger, and soy sauce.
