- Prepare the Avocado:
Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and slice it into thin strips. To prevent browning, drizzle with lemon or lime juice if not using immediately.
- Make the Avocado Maki (Seaweed Outside Roll):
- Lay a nori sheet on a bamboo mat, shiny side down.
- Spread about ½ cup of sushi rice over the nori, leaving a ¼-inch strip at the top.
- Place avocado slices about ¼ of the way up the rice-covered sheet.
- Roll the sushi with the help of the bamboo mat, sealing the edge with a little water.
- Make the Avocado Uramaki (Inside-Out Roll):
- Lay a sheet of nori on plastic wrap on the bamboo mat.
- Spread a thin layer of rice over the entire nori sheet and sprinkle with toppings like sesame seeds.
- Flip the nori sheet, place avocado slices inside, and roll using the bamboo mat.
- Slice the Rolls:
Use a sharp, wet knife to slice the rolls into bite-sized pieces.
Storage Tips:
- For best results, consume fresh. However, you can wrap the rolls tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 1-2 days.
Serve with:
Soy sauce, wasabi, pickled ginger, or sesame seeds.
