Instructions
Naruto Maki
- Peel cucumber and slice off the round ends. Slice in half crosswise. Holding one half of the cucumber in one hand, and a sharp knife in the other, carefully cut one long ribbon, by slowly moving the knife up and down while rotating the cucumber. Discard the seeded center.
- Place tuna slices in one layer and a slice of avocado.
- Roll up everything inside of the cucumber ribbon. Slice into 5-6 pieces. Mix sauce ingredients and pour on top.
No-Roll Sushi Poke
- Slice off cucumber ends. Using a vegetable peeler or mandolin, create thin, long strips of cucumber. Set aside.
- Add salmon cubes in one bowl and tuna cubes in another. In a separate bowl, mix sesame oil, soy sauce, rice vinegar, sriracha, lime, and chives to taste. Divide and pour over the salmon and tuna bowls. Mix well.
- Using wet clean hands, form small rounds of sushi rice. Wrap each of them with cucumber slice, and fill with tuna or salmon poke.
Alaskan Roll
- Using a mandolin, slice cucumber into thin rounds. Cut avocado in half, remove pit, and peel off the skin. Slice thinly.
- On a sushi mat line with plastic wrap, place one layer of cucumber, followed by avocado slices. Place salmon and imitation crab in the lower third, and gently roll up to close.
- Slice and serve with soy sauce.
