Ingredients:

  • 1 tbsp vinegar (peferably rice )
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 8 slices cucumbers , long and thin
  • 8 slices carrots , long and thin

Directions:

  1. Add the vinegar and sugar to the rice, and mix well.
  2. The purpose in this is not just to mix the flavors into the rice, but also to cool the rice just a little bit.
  3. Soften each leaf of lettuce by dipping it into boiling water for just a few seconds, until it can be easily rolled.
  4. Remove the lettuce from the water with tongs (unless you have asbestos fingers), and place flat, internal side down, on a kitchen towel to drain.
  5. Place about 2 tablespoons of rice in the center of each leaf.
  6. Top with a cucumber strip and with a carrot strip.
  7. Fold the sides of the leaf over the rice, and then roll the ends up over the filling to form a tight and compact bundle.
  8. Continue with the other 7 lettuce leaves, making 8 sushi bundles in all.
  9. Place in a single layer on a dish and chill until serving time.
  10. Allow at leave 15 minutes chilling time.
