• Spread some rice out to cover the nori sheet, leaving a space along the back edge to seal the roll.
• Place a small amount of vegetables along the close edge of the sheet, perpendicular to the direction you are facing. Roll the sheet up & over the row of vegetables. Press back towards you, and also down onto the roll. Make sure you are getting a tight roll but don't squish it.
• Peel the rolling mat off the front edge, and continue to roll. Press the roll together as you go, finishing by sealing with the strip at the far edge that has no rice.
