Easy Vegan Sushi Rolls

Vegan sushi rolls with avocado and tomato, garnished with sesame seeds, served with soy sauce on a wooden platter.

These sushi rolls feature creamy avocado and sweet tomato wrapped in seasoned rice and nori. The preparation time is about 30 minutes, and the recipe serves 2-3 people, making it a great choice for a light lunch or dinner.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup sushi rice
  • 1 1/4 cups water
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 4 sheets nori (seaweed)
  • 1 ripe avocado, sliced
  • 1 medium tomato, sliced
  • Soy sauce or tamari for dipping
  • Sesame seeds for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Sushi Rice: Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Combine the rice and water in a pot and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes. Remove from heat and let it sit covered for 10 minutes.
  2. Season the Rice: In a small bowl, mix rice vinegar, sugar, and salt until dissolved. Gently fold this mixture into the cooked rice and let it cool to room temperature.
  3. Roll the Sushi: Place a sheet of nori on a bamboo sushi mat or a clean surface. Wet your hands to prevent sticking, then spread a thin layer of sushi rice over the nori, leaving a 1-inch border at the top.
  4. Add Fillings: Place a few slices of avocado and tomato in the center of the rice-covered nori.
  5. Roll it Up: Carefully lift the edge of the mat closest to you and start rolling away from you, tucking the filling in as you go. Roll tightly until you reach the border of the nori. Seal the edge with a little water.
  6. Slice and Serve: Use a sharp knife to slice the roll into bite-sized pieces. Serve with soy sauce or tamari for dipping and sprinkle with sesame seeds if desired.
