Description
A fresh spicy tuna cucumber sushi roll with crisp cucumber and creamy filling. A light low carb sushi idea packed with flavor.
Ingredients
- 8 ounces sushi grade tuna finely diced
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon sriracha
- 1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon green onions finely sliced
- 2 large cucumbers
- 1/2 avocado sliced thin
- 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
Instructions
- In a bowl combine diced tuna, mayonnaise, sriracha, sesame oil, and green onions. Mix gently until evenly coated and keep chilled.
- Wash the cucumbers and trim the ends. Use a vegetable peeler or mandoline to slice long thin strips lengthwise.
- Lay out 3 to 4 cucumber strips slightly overlapping to form a rectangle. Pat dry with a paper towel if needed.
- Spoon a line of the spicy tuna mixture across the lower third of the cucumber sheet.
- Add a few slices of avocado on top of the tuna.
- Carefully roll tightly from the bottom up, forming a log shape.
- Repeat with remaining ingredients, then sprinkle sesame seeds over the rolls.
- Slice each roll into bite sized pieces using a sharp knife and serve immediately.
- Keep the tuna chilled and use it the same day for best quality and food safety.
Notes
- For cleaner slices, wipe the knife with a damp cloth between cuts and chill the rolls briefly before slicing.
