Introduction
Save major money making sushi at home! This is an easy to make sushi roll that tastes just as good as its restaurant counterpart. I use a scale to figure out the exact amounts (and thus closer on the calories) but have listed measurements as well. Save major money making sushi at home!

Ingredients
-
1.5 oz raw yellowfin tuna, chopped into rough 1/4" squares
6 g (1/2 Tbs) mayo
2 g (1/2 tsp) wasabi paste
3 g (1 Tbs) tempura crumbles* 1 sheet nori
90 grams (scant 1 c.) prepared sushi rice
3 thin cucumber strips, deseeded
* The true calories in the tempura crumbles is difficult to estimate; I assumed the entire weight was fat and substituted an equal weight of oil in the calorie estimator.
Directions
In a small bowl, mix chopped tuna, mayo, wasabi paste, and tempura crumbles (deep-fry small amounts of tempura batter until golden, drain well, and store in air-tight container for sushi). Set aside.
Lay sheet of nori on sushi mat (google for sushi making techniques, it's easy!). With damp hands, press the rice onto the nori in a very thin/single grain layer, leaving the top 3/4" inch of nori bare.
On the bottom half of the rice-covered nori, lay the cucumber strips out in a thin strip. Cover with tuna mixture to form an even 1" band. Roll tightly.
Cut with sharp wet knife into 8 equal pieces and serve with soy sauce.
