Ingredients
-
1 cup uncooked white rice
-
2 cups water
-
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
-
1 teaspoon salt
-
2 sheets nori seaweed sheets
-
¼ cucumber, peeled and sliced lengthwise
-
2 pieces imitation crab legs
-
½ (3 ounce) package cream cheese, sliced
-
1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger root
Directions
- Bring rice and water to a boil in a saucepan over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the rice is tender, and the liquid has been absorbed, 20 to 25 minutes. Stir in rice vinegar and salt. Allow to cool completely.
- Lay out seaweed sheets. Moisten hands with water, then spread cooled rice evenly on each sheet, leaving a 1/2-inch gap along one edge, lengthwise. Arrange strips of cucumber, imitation crabmeat, and cream cheese on top of the rice in a straight line along the side opposite the gap. Roll up sushi from the toppings to the seaweed sheet's exposed end.
- Using a sharp wet knife, slice each roll into 5 or 6 pieces. Serve with minced ginger on the side.
