I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my California rolls didn't turn out very well. The rice was too mushy and the avocado was too hard.

These California rolls were a bit too messy to eat. I think I would have liked them better if they had been cut into smaller pieces.

These California rolls were a bit too spicy for my taste. I think I would have liked them better if I had used less Sriracha sauce.

These California rolls were a bit too bland for my taste. I think I would have liked them better if I had added some more seasoning to the rice or the avocado mixture.

These California rolls were easy to make and turned out great! I used imitation crab, but I think next time I'll try using real crab. I also added a little bit of Sriracha sauce to the mayonnaise mixture, which gave the rolls a nice kick.
