2 cups cooked sushi rice
2 sheets of nori
6 thin slices of avocado
6 paper thin slices of cucumber
6 ounces of unagi, sliced into ½ inch thick strips, sliced lengthwise
1 tablespoon wasabi
small handful of watercress leaves

Preparation

1 Lay out one sheet of nori and spread a teaspoon of wasabi across the top of the nori sheet. Spread a thin layer of sushi rice across the entire sheet, except for 1 inch towards one end. Top with 3 thin slices each of avocado and cucumber across the length of the roll, on top of the rice. 2 Top with a couple strips of unagi and a few sprigs of watercress. 3 Tightly roll the nori on one end using a sushi roller, plastic wrap or your hands to form a tight roll. Repeat with the second sheet of nori. 4 Use a sharp knife to make 1 inch slices and place on a plate. Serve with soy, pickled ginger and wasabi.
