Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Whisk sriracha and mayo together in a small bowl until smooth and bright red.

  2. Step 2

    Heat a thin film of oil in a large skillet over high heat until shimmering, about 1 minute.

  3. Step 3

    Lay nori sheets on a cutting board. Spread a thin layer of sushi rice on each, leaving 1/2 inch at the top.

  4. Step 4

    Sear tuna slices 15 seconds per side—edges should char but center stays raw. Transfer to a plate.

  5. Step 5

    On each rice-topped nori, layer cucumber matchsticks, seared tuna, a drizzle of spicy mayo, and a pinch of sesame seeds.

  6. Step 6

    Roll tightly from the bottom, pressing gently. Slice each roll in half with a wet, sharp knife and serve immediately.
