Print Recipe

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 sheets of nori (dried seaweed)
  • 8 oz fresh salmon (sashimi-grade or cooked)
  • 1 ripe avocado, sliced
  • ½ cucumber, cut into thin strips
  • 4 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds
  • 1 tbsp mayonnaise (optional)
  • ½ tsp wasabi (optional)
  • Soy sauce or coconut aminos for dipping

Instructions

  1. Prep the salmon: If using raw salmon, cut it into thin strips. If cooking, sear it for 1-2 minutes per side, then let cool and slice.
  2. Slice the avocado & cucumber: Cut them into thin, even strips for easy rolling.
  3. Prepare the nori: Place a sheet of nori on a bamboo mat (shiny side down).
  4. Spread the cream cheese: Evenly spread a thin layer of cream cheese over the nori.
  5. Add the fillings: Place salmon, avocado, and cucumber along the edge closest to you. Sprinkle sesame seeds for extra flavor.
  6. Roll the sushi: Using the bamboo mat, gently roll the sushi, pressing firmly to keep it tight. Use a little water to seal the edge.
  7. Slice & serve: Use a sharp knife to cut the roll into bite-sized pieces. Serve with soy sauce, wasabi, or extra sesame seeds.

Notes

  • Use sashimi-grade salmon if eating raw. If unsure, cook it lightly before rolling.
  • Chill the ingredients before rolling for a firmer texture.
  • To make slicing easier, dip your knife in warm water between cuts.
  • Try adding a little spicy mayo (mayo + sriracha) for extra flavor.
