How to Make Shrimp Avocado Roll

  1. Cut off the top quarter of each nori sheet along the short end.
  2. Place one sheet of nori, shiny side down, on a sushi rolling mat.
  3. Position the long end of the nori towards you.
  4. Moisten your hands with water. Shape ¾ cup of sushi rice into a tube-like line across the nori, leaving a 1-inch border at one long end.
  5. Arrange the following ingredients along the top third of the rice-covered nori: ¼ cup cooked shrimp (peeled and deveined), 2 (2-inch long) carrot strips, 2 (⅛-inch thick) avocado slices, 1 tablespoon chopped green onion, and 2 (2-inch long) cucumber strips.
  6. Lift the edge of the nori closest to you and fold it tightly over the filling.
  7. Using the sushi mat, gently lift the bottom edge and begin rolling towards the top edge, pressing firmly to keep the roll compact.
  8. Continue rolling until you reach the top edge. Press the mat firmly to seal the roll.
  9. Let the roll rest seam-side down for 5 minutes.
  10. Repeat steps 2-9 for the remaining nori sheets.
  11. Using a sharp, wet knife, slice each roll into 8 equal pieces.
  12. Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce. Enjoy!
