Ingredients

1/2 cucumber, peeled and thinly sliced
1 avocado, thinly sliced
1 cup sushi rice
1 tablespoon sugar
1 cup water
4 ounces cooked crab meat
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
4 shrimp tempura, cut in half lengthwise
4 nori sheets
1 teaspoon salt

Time Needed

Prep Time: 30 minutes
Cook Time: 20 minutes
Total Time: 50 minutes

Instructions

Combine the sushi rice and water in a medium saucepan.
Bring the water to a boil over high heat.
Reduce the heat to low, cover, and allow to cook for 20 minutes.
Allow to cool for 10 minutes after removing from the heat.
Combine the rice vinegar, sugar, and salt in a small bowl.
Microwave for 30 seconds, or until the sugar is completely dissolved.
Add the vinegar mixture to the cooked rice in a large mixing bowl.
Stir until thoroughly combined.
Place a sheet of nori on a sushi mat or piece of plastic wrap, shiny side down.
1/4 of the rice mixture should be spread over the nori, leaving a 1-inch border at the top.
1/4 avocado, cucumber, crab meat, and shrimp tempura should be placed in a line across the rice, about 1 inch from the bottom.
Roll the sushi tightly away from you, pressing lightly as you go, using the sushi mat or plastic wrap.
Rep with the rest of the ingredients.
If desired, cut each roll into 8 pieces and serve with soy sauce and wasabi.
