Equipment

  • 1 bamboo mat

Ingredients
 
 

  • 3 cups cooked Japanese rice
  • 6 tablespoons sushi vinegar see notes for more
  • 4 ounces cooked shrimp peeled and deveined
  • 1 tablespoon avocado oil mayonnaise or regular mayonnaise
  • 2 teaspoons Sriracha sauce or more
  • ½ small avocado sliced
  • ¼ medium yellow bell pepper very thinly sliced
  • 2 sheets nori seaweed full size

Optional topping/ dip

  • toasted white sesame
  • tamari soy sauce
  • wasabi

Instructions
 

  • To make seasoned sushi rice, pour the sushi vinegar over rice and mix well.
  • Pat dry the shrimp well with paper towels. Chop them well (but not mice) with a knife. Transfer to a bowl. Season with mayonnaise and Sriracha sauce and mix well.
  • Place a bamboo mat on a working surface and place a sheet of nori seaweed with the shinier side down. Spread half of the sushi rice on the nori, leaving an inch of space on the edge further away from you.
  • Spread half of the shrimp in the middle of the rice, horizontally. Then top with a few slices of avocado and strips of bell pepper.
  • Lift up the bottom edge (closer to you) of the bamboo mat all the way to the top side to roll up. Let the bottom and top end of nori meet and give a little squeeze with your hands to make sure everything is packed in tightly. Take the roll out of the bamboo mat and repeat with the rest of the ingredients.
  • Serve with tamari soy sauce, wasabi and ginger pickles if desired.

Notes

Sushi vinegar can be made by combining 4 tablespoon rice vinegar, 2 tablespoon sugar, 1 teaspoon salt.
