How to Make Avonutty Sushi
- **Prepare the Peanuts:** Roughly crush 1 cup of roasted peanuts using a pestle and mortar or by placing them in a resealable bag and crushing with a rolling pin. Aim for medium-sized pieces.
- **Prepare the Rolling Surface:** If using a sushi rolling mat, lay it on a clean surface. Otherwise, lay down a clean kitchen towel and cover it tightly with cling film.
- **Prepare the Nori:** Place a sheet of nori seaweed on the rolling surface, shiny side down. If using untoasted nori, briefly toast it over a gas flame to enhance its flavor.
- **Spread the Rice:** Evenly spread a layer of cooked sushi rice onto the nori. For thin rolls, use about 1/8 inch thickness; for thicker rolls, use 1/4 to 1/2 inch thickness. Leave a 1-inch gap at the top edge.
- **Add Avocado and Peanuts:** Arrange a line of thinly sliced avocado about 1 inch from the bottom edge of the rice. Sprinkle the crushed peanuts evenly over the avocado.
- **Roll the Sushi:** Starting from the bottom edge, tightly roll the sushi using the rolling mat or towel to help create a firm roll. Moisten the top edge of the nori with water to seal the roll.
- **Rest and Slice:** Wrap the rolled sushi in the towel and let it rest for at least 10 minutes. Using a sharp, wet knife, slice the sushi into 1/2-inch thick pieces.
- **Serve:** Remove the end pieces and arrange the sushi slices on a platter. Serve immediately and enjoy!
