Tofu And Avocado Sushi Rolls

Ingredients:
– 2 cups sushi rice
– 3 cups water
– 1/4 cup rice vinegar
– 2 tablespoons sugar
– 1 teaspoon salt
– 1 package extra firm tofu, pressed and sliced into thin strips
– 2 ripe avocados, peeled, pitted, and sliced
– 4 nori seaweed sheets
– Soy sauce, pickled ginger, and wasabi for serving

Instructions:
1. Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Combine the rice and water in a rice cooker or pot and cook according to the package instructions.
2. In a small saucepan, combine the rice vinegar, sugar, and salt. Heat over low heat, stirring until the sugar and salt dissolve. Set aside to cool.
3. Once the rice is cooked, transfer it to a large bowl and gently fold in the seasoned vinegar using a wooden spoon or rice paddle. Be careful not to mash the rice. Let the rice cool to room temperature.
4. Place a bamboo sushi mat on a clean work surface, shiny side down. Lay a sheet of nori on the mat.
5. Wet your hands with water to prevent sticking, then grab a handful of sushi rice and spread it evenly over the nori, leaving a 1-inch border at the top.
6. Arrange a few strips of tofu and avocado in a line across the center of the rice.
7. Using the bamboo mat as a guide, tightly roll up the sushi, applying gentle pressure as you go. Moisten the top border of the nori with water to seal the roll.
8. Repeat the process with the remaining ingredients.
9. Using a sharp knife, slice the sushi roll into 6-8 bite-sized pieces. Wipe the knife clean between cuts for neat slices.
10. Serve the Tofu and Avocado Sushi Rolls with soy sauce, pickled ginger, and wasabi on the side for dipping.
