    Cook the sushi rice according to the package instructions. Mix with the rice vinegar and granulated sugar.

  2. 2

    Place a sheet of nori on a bamboo mat, shiny side down.

    Spread a thin layer of mayonnaise in the center of the rice.

  5. 5

    Arrange the fillings (tuna and sliced cucumber) in a line over the mayonnaise.

  6. 6

    Lift the edge of the mat and roll the sushi tightly, applying light pressure.

    Moisten the free edge with a little water and finish rolling to seal.

  8. 8

    Cut the rolls into equal portions with a moistened knife.

💡 Chef's Tip

Regularly moisten your hands and your knife to prevent the rice from sticking. You can pre-cook the rice the day before to save time. To vary the flavors, try different fillings: avocado, egg, smoked fish, etc.
