Instructions

Step 1: In a bowl, mix 2 cups cooked sushi rice with 2 tbsp rice vinegar and 1 tsp sugar. Let sit for 15 minutes to absorb the flavors.
Step 2: Lay a nori sheet on a bamboo sushi mat. Spread 1/2 cup sushi rice evenly over the nori, leaving a 1-inch border at the top.
Step 3: Place 1/4 cup sliced avocado, 1/4 cup canned tuna, and 1 tbsp tempura flakes in a line across the rice. Brush a small amount of soy sauce over the ingredients.
Step 4: Roll the nori tightly using the mat, pressing gently to seal. Repeat with the remaining ingredients to make 4 rolls.
Step 5: Slice each roll into 1-inch pieces. Serve with a small dish of soy sauce and wasabi on the side. For extra crunch, deep-fry the rolls in 1/2 inch oil until golden, about 2 minutes per side.
