Place a seaweed sheet on the rolling mat with the rough side up. Spread 200-220g of warm rice evenly over it, leaving one finger-width at the top free of rice. Add 20ml of salad dressing near the bottom, followed by 50g of meat floss, pickled radish, cucumber, carrot, ham, and egg strips.

Spread the rice evenly without breaking the grains. Leaving space at the top and bottom makes rolling easier.

Watch out

The first round must not be loose, otherwise pressing hard later will break the seaweed.

The knife is sharp when slicing sushi, keep your hands away from the cutting path.

Apply a little oil on the knife to make slicing easier. Cut the finished sushi roll into bite-sized pieces, arrange on a plate, and serve.
