Bring water to a boil in a medium-sized pot, then stir in the rice. Lower the heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for 20 to 25 minutes until the rice is tender and the water has been absorbed.
In a small bowl, combine rice vinegar, sugar, and salt. Gently fold the mixture into the cooked rice in the pot and set it aside.

Warm the nori in the preheated oven for 1 to 2 minutes until it’s heated through.
Place a sheet of nori in the center of a bamboo sushi mat. Wet your hands and spread a thin layer of rice over the nori. Layer 1/4 of the crabmeat, avocado, cucumber, and pickled ginger in a line down the middle.

Roll the sushi tightly by lifting one end of the mat and folding it over the filling to form a complete roll. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.

Using a sharp knife that’s been wetted, slice each roll into 4 to 6 pieces.

Pro Tip
If you don’t have a bamboo sushi mat, you can easily roll your sushi using a clean dish towel.
