Nori Rolls

Ingredients:

two cups uncooked short-grain white rice
two and quarter cups water
quarter cup soy sauce
two teaspoons honey
one teaspoon minced garlic
three ounces firm tofu
two tablespoons rice vinegar
four sheets nori seaweed sheets
half cucumber
half avocado
one small carrot

Instructions:

In a large sized pan cover rice with water and let stand for thirty minutes.

In a shallow dish mix soy sauce, honey and garlic. In this mixture marinate tofu for at least thirty minutes.

Bring water and rice to a broil and then lessen heat; simmer for about twenty minutes, or till thick and sticky. In a large sized dish stir cooked rice with rice vinegar.

Put a sheet of nori on a bamboo mat. Working with wet hands, spread quarter of the rice evenly over the nori; leave about half inch on the top edge of the nori. Put two strips of marinated tofu end to end about one inch from the bottom. Put two strips of cucumber next to the tofu, then avocado and carrot.
