Ingredients

400 g sushi rice
500 ml water
60 ml rice vinegar
2 tbsp sugar
1 tsp salt
300 g sushi-grade salmon
1 cucumber
1 avocado
5 nori sheets
Soy sauce, wasabi

Instructions

Rinse the rice until the water runs clear, cook it covered for 12 minutes and rest 10.
Warm the vinegar, sugar and salt to dissolve; fold it through the rice with a cutting motion rather than stirring.
Cool the rice to body temperature.
Lay nori on a bamboo mat, spread rice thinly, leaving 2 cm bare at the far edge.
Line up the salmon, cucumber and avocado.
Roll tightly with the mat and seal the bare edge with a little water.
Cut into 8 with a wet, very sharp knife.
