Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Cook sushi rice according to package instructions, about 15-20 minutes. Let cool slightly, then mix in rice vinegar, sugar, and salt.
  2. In a bowl, combine chopped shrimp, Kewpie mayo, Sriracha, and green onions, mixing until creamy.
  3. Place half a nori sheet on a flat surface, add sushi rice, cucumber, avocado, carrots, clover sprouts, and shrimp mixture.
  4. Roll the nori upwards to create a cone, sealing with water or rice.
  5. Slice the rolls in half, sprinkle with sesame seeds, and serve with extra Sriracha.

Notes

Enjoy hand rolls immediately for best texture; nori can become soggy if left too long after assembly.
