These cooked sushi rolls are great for tired travelers who want a quick and easy meal to take with them. You can fill them with any kind of food you like and wrap them in nori for a tasty treat you can take with you.

Ingredients: 2 cups sushi rice. 2 1/2 cups water. 1/2 cup rice vinegar. 3 tablespoons sugar. 1 teaspoon salt. Nori sheets. Assorted fillings e.g., cooked shrimp, avocado, cucumber, crab meat.

Instructions: Rinse sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Combine rice and water in a rice cooker and cook according to the cooker's instructions. In a small saucepan, combine rice vinegar, sugar, and salt. Heat over low heat until the sugar and salt dissolve. Transfer cooked rice to a large bowl and gently fold in the vinegar mixture until well combined. Allow the rice to cool to room temperature. Place a sheet of nori on a bamboo sushi mat, shiny side down. Spread a thin layer of rice over the nori, leaving about 1/2 inch of space at the top. Arrange your desired fillings in a line across the center of the rice. Using the bamboo mat, tightly roll the sushi away from you, applying gentle pressure to shape it into a cylinder. Slice the sushi roll into bite-sized pieces using a sharp knife. Repeat with remaining nori, rice, and fillings. Serve with soy sauce, wasabi, and pickled ginger.
