Instructions
- Rinse the sushi rice in a strainer under cold water until the water runs clear.

- In a small saucepan, combine the rice vinegar, sugar, and salt. Heat over medium heat until the sugar dissolves. Remove from heat and let it cool.
- Transfer the cooked rice to a large wooden or glass bowl. Gently fold in the vinegar mixture, being careful not to mash the rice. Allow the rice to cool to room temperature.
- Lay a bamboo sushi mat on a flat surface and place a sheet of nori on top, shiny side down.
- With wet hands, spread a thin layer of sushi rice evenly over the nori, leaving a 1-inch border at the top edge.
- Arrange the tempura shrimp, cucumber, and avocado in a line across the center of the rice.
- Using the bamboo mat, roll the sushi tightly, starting from the edge closest to you. Seal the roll by moistening the top border of the nori with water.
