Cucumber Rolls

Cucumber Rolls
4 sheets of nori (dried seaweed), cut in half
6 cups prepared sushi rice
2 Japanese cucumber, cut into long sticks
Put a half-size nori on top of a bamboo mat (makisu). Spread about 3/4 cup of sushi rice on top of the nori. Place cucumber sticks horizontally on the rice. Roll up the bamboo mat, pressing forward to shape the sushi into a cylinder. Press the bamboo mat firmly with hands. Unwrap the bamboo mat. Make more rolls. Wipe a knife with a wet cloth before slicing sushi. Cut the sushi roll into bite-size pieces. Makes 8 rolls.
I only make a few because only a few of my friends will eat sushi, hence I always bring a second dish! We kinda rotate potlucks, so based on who’s ‘turn’ it is to host (because different friends have differen friends! LOL!)
