- In a small saucepan add the rice vinegar, salt and the sugar, stir a cook until the salt and sugar has dissolved. Add it to the previously cooked rice and stir.3 tbsp rice vinegar, 1 tbsp sugar, 1 tbsp salt
Make the sushi:
- Wash the cucumber and cut it into thin stripes. Make sure the seeds of the cucumber are not big since that can cause you a problem. You can peel it if you want but then it is not going to have those dark green parts on the top and on the butter of the sushi. Clean the carrot and cut it into short stripes. Peel the avocado and cut it into thin slices. Cut the scallions as well.2 cucumbers, 2 carrots, Scallions, 1 avocado
- Now it’s time to assemble the sushi. Take a small amount of the rice and shape it with your hands as a small cube. Don’t worry if it is not perfect since it is going to be wrapped in the cucumber.
- Place a few slices of the carrot, scallions and avocado and wrap it in the cucumber. Make sure it is tight enough so the filling from the inside doesn’t fall off. To make it easier you can roll the sushi on your chopping board.Soy sauce
