  • 1 ½ teaspoons salt
  • 4 sheets nori seaweed sheets
  • ½ pound imitation crabmeat, flaked
  • 1 avocado – peeled, pitted, and sliced
  • ½ cucumber, peeled, cut into small strips
  • 2 tablespoons pickled ginger
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • ¼ teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 pinch garlic powder
  • 1 thin slice lemon
  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons sriracha
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lime juice

Instructions:

  • Gather all ingredients. Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
  • Bring water to a boil in a medium pot; stir in rice. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until rice is tender and water has been absorbed, 20 to 25 minutes.
  • Mix rice vinegar, sugar, and salt in a small bowl. Gently stir into cooked rice in the pot and set aside.
  • Lay nori sheets on a baking sheet.
  • Heat nori in the preheated oven until warm, 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Center 1 nori sheet on a bamboo sushi mat. Use wet hands to spread a thin layer of rice on top. Arrange 1/4 of the crabmeat, avocado, cucumber, and pickled ginger over rice in a line down the center.
  • Lift one end of the mat and roll it tightly over filling to make a complete roll. Repeat with remaining ingredients.
  • Use a wet, sharp knife to cut each roll into 4 to 6 slices.

Sushi Sauce:

  • Gather all ingredients.
  • Stir together soy sauce, sesame oil, and garlic powder in a small bowl; add lemon slice.
  • Serve and enjoy!

Spicy Mayo Sauce:

  • In a small bowl, stir together the mayonnaise, sriracha, lime juice, and sesame oil.
  • Taste and adjust as desired.
