2 Japanese Cucumbers
1 Avocado (ripe but firm)
8 Shiso Leaves
8 Large Basil Leaves
1 tray Radish Sprouts
1/2 lb. Tuna (sashimi quality, cut into 5 inch x 1 inch strips)

Method:

Lay two small bunches of radish sprouts next to the avocado with the tops extending beyond the edge of the cucumber on both sides.

4. Lay one of the strips of tuna down on top of the radish sprouts.

5. Roll the bottom edge of the cucumber up and over the tuna and avocado. pull back toward the bottom to tighten the roll. carefully roll forward while gently pulling back to keep the roll tight, all the way to the end of the cucumber.

6. Using a sharp japanese knife, slice the roll in half cross-wise and then slice each half into 3 equal pieces. Arrange on a plate and top with truffle ponzu.
