Step-by-Step Instructions:
- Gently mix the rice vinegar into your warm cooked sushi rice. Set aside and allow the rice to cool completely.
- Place a sheet of sushi paper flat onto a bamboo rolling mat. Spread an even, thin layer of the prepared sushi rice across the paper, leaving a small border at the top edge.
- Arrange your long strips of cucumber, avocado, and the cooked prawns in a neat line across the center of the rice.
- Using the bamboo mat to guide you, tightly roll the sushi paper over the fillings. Seal the edge, then slice the roll into bite-sized pieces using a sharp knife.
- Enjoy your homemade prawn sushi fresh with a side of soy sauce for dipping.
- For clean, professional cuts every time, wipe your knife blade with a damp cloth between slices!
