Ingredients:

• 300g sushi rice
• 4 nori sheets
• 200g sushi-grade tuna
• 1 avocado, thinly sliced

Start by cooking the sushi rice according to the package instructions in a rice cooker. Once cooked, let it cool slightly before seasoning with rice vinegar, sugar, and salt. Lay a nori sheet on a bamboo sushi mat, then spread a thin layer of seasoned rice evenly over the nori, leaving a border at the top.

Arrange the sliced avocado, julienned cucumber, sushi-grade tuna, pickled ginger, and cilantro in the center of the rice. Drizzle with soy sauce and sriracha for an extra kick of flavor. Using the bamboo mat, carefully roll the sushi burrito tightly, sealing the edge with a bit of water.

Slice the sushi burrito into even pieces using a sharp knife, then serve with lime wedges on the side for a pop of citrus freshness. This Sushi Burrito with a Mexican Twist is best enjoyed fresh, so dig in and savor the vibrant flavors of this fusion dish!
