Ingredients:  
Nori (dried seaweed sheets)
sushi rice
cucumber strips, seeded and skins removed
sesame seeds

Directions:
Directions:
Moisten your hands in a bowl of water. This will stop the rice from sticking to your fingers. Lay it out. Spread a layer of sushi rice over the Nori. Leave about half an inch bare at the top – you will need this bare strip to hold the roll in place. Make sure the rice lies evenly over the Nori as this will make the rolling stage far easier. Put the Nori and rice onto the sushi mat. Sprinkle on some sesame seeds. Lay the cucumber strips horizontally across the center. Roll. Using the sushi mat, fold the maki and apply pressure. This shapes the maki. Fold the mat forwards once again and apply more pressure. Unroll the sushi mat. Slice the sushi into 6 equal pieces. Enjoy!
