Time 56m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 14

⅓ cup Japanese sushi-style rice
⅓ cup water
2 ¼ teaspoons rice vinegar
2 ¼ teaspoons white sugar
1 teaspoon salt
4 ounces sashimi-grade yellowfin tuna, cut into small chunks
⅓ cup mayonnaise
3 tablespoons chile oil, or more to taste
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon sriracha sauce
1 green onion, diced
3 sheets nori, cut in half
½ small ripe avocado, thinly sliced
¼ English cucumber, cut into matchsticks

Steps:

  • Rinse rice in a strainer until water runs clear.
  • Combine rice and water in a saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook until rice is tender and water is absorbed, about 20 minutes.
  • Combine rice vinegar, sugar, and salt in a small saucepan over low heat; stir until sugar is dissolved, 1 to 2 minutes. Pour over rice; stir until rice cools and looks dry.
  • Mix tuna, mayonnaise, chile oil, sesame oil, sriracha sauce, and green onion in a bowl with a fork, mashing to break up some of the chunks. Leave a few chunks intact for texture.
  • Cover a bamboo sushi rolling mat with plastic wrap. Lay 1 nori sheet, shiny-side down, on the mat. Spread a thin layer of rice over the nori. Layer avocado slices across the rice. Flip nori sheet so avocado is against the mat. Spread a generous layer of tuna mixture 3/4 of the way down the back of the nori; top with cucumber matchsticks.
  • Roll up sushi using the rolling mat, tucking in ends with the plastic wrap. Remove plastic wrap and place sushi roll on a plate. Repeat with remaining nori, rice, avocado, tuna mixture, and cucumber.
