Instructions

🎙️ Cook with voice coach

Rinse the Sushi Rice under cold water until the water runs clear.
Combine the Rice and Water in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let stand, covered, for 10 minutes.
In a small bowl, whisk together the Rice Vinegar, Sugar, and Salt until the sugar dissolves. Gently fold this mixture into the cooked rice.
Combine the Cream Cheese and crushed Hot Cheetos in a bowl and mix well.
Place a Nori Sheet shiny-side down on a bamboo sushi rolling mat. Spread a thin, even layer of the seasoned rice over the Nori Sheet, leaving about 1 inch of space at the top edge.
Spread half of the Cream Cheese and Hot Cheeto Filling horizontally across the center of the rice.
Using the bamboo mat, tightly roll the sushi away from you. Moisten the top edge of the Nori Sheet with Water to seal the roll.
Slice the roll into 6-8 pieces and serve immediately.
