- 1 green onion chopped
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil

- 1 C sushi rice
- 2 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
Other:
- 3 seaweed nori sheets

Instructions
Prepare the spicy tuna filling:
- In a bowl, combine the drained canned tuna, and add in mayonnaise, sriracha sauce, gochugaru chili powder, chopped green onion and sesame oil.
- Give it a good mix and set aside.
Prepare the sushi rice:
- Wash the short-grained sushi rice until the water runs clear.
- Place washed rice into a rice cooker and cover with enough water.
- Cook the rice accordingly.
Prepare the rice seasoning:
- In a small saucepan, combine the rice vinegar and sugar and bring to a simmer.
- Give the mixture a stir until the sugar is completely dissolved.
- Gradually pour the rice seasoning mixture over top of the rice and use a rice paddle to "cut" it through the rice, until thoroughly combined.
Assemble:
- Use plastic wrap to wrap the bamboo sushi mat.
- On a clean work surface, place the bamboo sushi mat along with a piece of nori seaweed shiny side down.
- Take a portion of rice and flatten it onto the surface of the seaweed, leaving space on the top and bottom edges.
- Sprinkle sesame seeds evenly on the rice.
- Flip the seaweed sheet so the rice faces downward.
- Add in about ⅓rd of the spicy tuna mixture, a few slices of cucumber and avocado.
- Tightly roll up the seaweed, using the bamboo mat to shape it into a round log.
- Use a sharp serrated knife to cut the sushi roll (into pieces about ¾" - 1" in size), dipping the knife in water in between cuts. (Trim off the edges for cleaner sushi rolls).
- Assemble onto a plate and serve with wasabi, ginger and soy sauce, if desired.
Notes
- Yields 3 full sushi rolls, which can be cut into 8-10 pieces per roll.
