Ingredients

• 1 cup sushi rice, cooked

• 4 sheets nori seaweed

• 1 ripe avocado, sliced

• 1/2 cup cucumber, julienned

• 1/2 cup shiso microgreens

• Soy sauce, for serving

• Sesame seeds, for garnish

Instructions

• 1

  Place a sheet of nori on a bamboo sushi mat, shiny side down, and spread 1/4 of the cooked sushi rice evenly over the nori, leaving a 1-inch border at the top.

• 2

  Layer avocado slices, cucumber sticks, and a generous handful of shiso microgreens across the rice.

• 3

  Using the bamboo mat, carefully roll the sushi away from you, pressing gently but firmly as you roll to keep the filling tight.

  Seal the edge with a little water, then slice the roll into bite-sized pieces and sprinkle with sesame seeds.

• 5

  Serve with soy sauce for dipping.
