  • 3/4 cups Sushi rice
  • 1 1/4 TBSP Rice wine vinegar

  • 4 oz Ahi tuna cubed or minced
  • 3 tsp Sriracha sauce
  • 1/2 tsp Sesame oil
  • 2 Scallions thinly sliced

Spicy Mayo

  • 1/2 cup Mayonnaise
  • 2 TBSP Sriracha sauce
  • dash Lime juice fresh

Rolls

  • 2 Nori seaweed sheets
  • Wasabi paste (optional)
  • Pickled ginger (optional)
  • Reduced-sodium soy sauce

Iced Matcha Latte

  • 1 tsp Matcha powder
  • 2 TBSP Hot water
  • 1 cup Milk dairy or plant-based
  • 1 tsp Honey or sweetener, optional
  • Ice cubes

Instructions

  • Wash and rinse the sushi rice until the water runs clear. Drain well and cook according to the instructions on the package.
  • Once cooked, season the rice with rice wine vinegar and cover with a damp cloth to prevent drying.
  • In a bowl, combine tuna, sriracha sauce, sesame oil, and scallions to prepare the spicy tuna filling.
  • Cover a bamboo sushi mat with plastic wrap. Place a sheet of nori shiny side down on the mat.
  • Wet your fingers and spread an even layer of sushi rice on the nori. Sprinkle with sesame seeds if desired.
  • Arrange the tuna mixture along the bottom edge of the nori.
  • Start rolling the nori over the filling, pressing gently but firmly to create a tight roll. Continue rolling until fully sealed.
  • Gently press along the length of the roll to shape and compact it.
  • To make the spicy mayo, whisk together mayonnaise, sriracha, and lime juice in a small bowl until smooth.
  • Whisk matcha with hot water until smooth and foamy. In a glass, add ice and pour in milk and sweetener. Stir in the matcha mixture and adjust sweetness to taste.
  • Wet the blade of a sharp knife and slice each roll into 6–8 pieces. Wipe the knife with a damp cloth between cuts.
  • Top the rolls with spicy mayo or serve on the side.
  • Serve the sushi rolls with wasabi, pickled ginger, soy sauce, and a glass of iced matcha latte. Enjoy.
