Ingredients
  

2 large nori sheets

1 cup sushi rice, cooked and cooled

1 tablespoon rice vinegar

1 teaspoon sugar

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup shredded carrots

1/2 cup cucumber, julienned

1/2 cup bell pepper, thinly sliced (any color)

1/4 cup avocado, sliced

1/4 cup daikon radish, thinly sliced (optional)

1/4 cup sprouts (e.g., alfalfa or radish sprouts)

Soy sauce or tamari, for dipping

Sesame seeds, for garnish

Optional: wasabi and pickled ginger for serving

Instructions
 

Prepare the Sushi Rice: In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooled sushi rice with rice vinegar, sugar, and salt. Gently mix until all the ingredients are evenly distributed and the rice is coated. Allow the mixture to cool to room temperature for optimal rolling.

    Prepare the Nori: Place one sheet of nori, shiny side facing down, on a sushi mat or a clean flat surface.

      Spread the Rice: Lightly wet your hands to prevent the rice from sticking. Take a handful of sushi rice and spread it evenly over the nori, leaving about an inch of space at the top edge free of rice.

        Add the Fillings: In the center of the rice-covered nori, layer the shredded carrots, julienned cucumber, thinly sliced bell pepper, avocado slices, daikon radish (if using), and sprouts to create a colorful and vibrant filling.

          Roll the Burrito: Starting from the bottom edge (the side nearest you), gently lift the sushi mat and begin to roll the nori away from you, applying light pressure to keep the fillings tightly packed. Continue to roll until you reach the bare edge of the nori.

            Seal the Roll: To secure the roll, dampen your fingertips with a little water and lightly moisten the edge of the nori before pressing it down to seal the roll completely.

              Slice and Serve: Using a sharp, wet knife, slice the roll into bite-sized pieces or halves. For added texture and visual appeal, sprinkle sesame seeds on top.

                Enjoy: Serve your veggie sushi burrito rolls alongside soy sauce or tamari for dipping. For an extra kick, include a side of wasabi and pickled ginger.

                  Prep Time: 15 minutes | Total Time: 30 minutes | Servings: 2 large burritos (4 halves)

                    Presentation Tips:

                      Serve the rolls on a wooden or bamboo platter, garnished with a small bowl of soy sauce or tamari for dipping. Add a sprinkle of sesame seeds and a few edible flowers or herbs for a beautiful touch.
