- 4 pieces Nori Sheets (full‑size sheets for rolling)

- 1 spray Coconut Cooking Spray (to coat the sushi bazooka for easy release)

Instructions
Prepare the Sushi Bazooka
Lightly coat the interior of the sushi bazooka with coconut cooking spray to prevent the rice from sticking.
Time: PT2M
Season the Rice
Wet your hands, grab the prepared sushi rice, and gently fold in rice vinegar until evenly flavored.
Time: PT5M
Load Rice into the Bazooka
Press the plunger into the bazooka, fill the chamber with seasoned rice, and push the plunger back to create a solid rice column that reaches the edges.
Time: PT5M
Add Fillings
Open the bazooka and fill one side of the rice channel with the imitation crab salad, the opposite side with thin cucumber strips, and the remaining side with avocado slices. Keep fillings away from the rice edges.
Time: PT5M
Assemble the Bazooka Hinge and Cap
Snap the two hinge tabs into their slots, close the clasp, place the end cap, and screw the handle down to compress the roll tightly.
Time: PT3M
Wrap with Nori
Lay a nori sheet on a clean surface, position the compressed rice cylinder on it, wet the top edge of the nori with a fingertip, and roll tightly, keeping the roll as dry as possible.
Time: PT4M
Release the Roll
Remove the bazooka lid, press the back of the cylinder to push the roll out onto the nori, and gently shape it with your hands.
Time: PT2M
Slice the Roll
Wet a sharp knife, cut the roll in half, then each half again to make four pieces, and finally cut each piece into bite‑size sections. Wipe the blade between cuts.
Time: PT5M
Garnish and Serve
Arrange the sushi pieces on a plate and sprinkle with black and white sesame seeds, tobiko, and finely chopped green onions.
Time: PT3M
