1

Prepare the Ingredients

First, gather all the ingredients you'll need. You'll require 1/2 pound sushi-grade tuna, 2 tablespoons mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon Sriracha sauce, 1 teaspoon soy sauce, 2 cups cooked sushi rice, 4 sheets of nori (seaweed), and optional toppings like sesame seeds, green onions, or avocado slices.

2

Mix the Spicy Tuna Filling

In a bowl, combine the tuna, mayonnaise, Sriracha sauce, and soy sauce. Stir well until everything is evenly mixed. Taste the mixture and adjust the spiciness if needed by adding more Sriracha sauce.

3

Prepare the Sushi Rolls

Place a bamboo sushi mat on a flat surface and cover it with plastic wrap. Lay a sheet of nori on top of the mat. Moisten your hands with water to prevent sticking, and take a handful of sushi rice. Spread the rice evenly over the nori, leaving a 1-inch border at the top.

4

Add the Spicy Tuna Filling

Add a strip of the spicy tuna filling across the center of the rice. Be sure not to add too much filling as it will make rolling difficult. You can also add optional toppings like sesame seeds, green onions, or avocado slices to enhance the flavors.

5

Roll the Sushi

Starting from the edge closest to you, roll the sushi tightly using the bamboo mat to shape it. Apply gentle pressure to ensure a firm roll. Seal the roll by moistening the top border of the nori with a little water. Repeat the process for the remaining nori sheets.

6

Slice and Serve

With a sharp knife, carefully slice the sushi roll into bite-sized pieces. Wipe the knife with a damp cloth between each cut for cleaner slices. Arrange the sushi rolls on a plate and serve with soy sauce, wasabi, and pickled ginger. Enjoy your homemade spicy tuna sushi rolls!
