Ingredients

Instructions

1. Prepare the Sushi Rice

Start by rinsing 1 cup of sushi rice in a strainer to remove excess starch. Using a rice cooker, cook the rinsed rice with 1 cups of water. Once the rice is cooked, transfer it to a large bowl and let it cool. In a small pan, heat 3 tablespoons of rice vinegar, 3 tablespoons of sugar, and 1 teaspoon of salt until the sugar and salt dissolve. Pour this mixture over the cooled rice and mix gently.

2. Prepare the Crab Filling

Shred 8 ounces of imitation crab meat or real crab meat in a bowl. Mix it with 2 tablespoons of mayonnaise. Set aside.

3. Assemble the Sushi Rolls

Place a sheet of nori on a bamboo sushi mat. Spread a thin layer of the prepared sushi rice over the nori. Add a line of the crab mixture, along with some cucumber and avocado slices. Roll the sushi tightly using the bamboo mat. Repeat the process with the remaining ingredients.

4. Cut and Serve

Using a sharp sushi knife, cut each roll into 6-8 pieces. Serve the crab roll sushi with optional toppings like sesame seeds or tobiko.
