  Step 1

  These are the ingredients (I'm not sure how mush of each you need, I just did it by looking).

• 

  Step 2

  First, you need to cook the rice. It's best if you let it cool down before you start or you'll end up burning your hands... You can use a electric pan if you have it.
  I use the recipe from this website (it's in portuguese, so I'll translate it) but you can use any recipe you want, as long as it is japanese rice.

  Ingredients:
  3 cups of japanese rice
  3 cups of water (I use a bit more than that)

  How to make:
  1. Wash the rice 3 or four times gingerly, being careful not to break the grains, and drain in it a colander.
  2. In a pan, put the rice in the water and leave it there for 30 minutes, so that the water can reach the centre of every grain.
  3. Put the pan in the fire with a semi-open lid and cook in a high flame until it begins to dry up.
  4. Lower the fire (almost none) and cook it for 10 more minutes.
  5. Turn off the fire, live it stifling for 15 minutes and serve. (it's done!)

  Step 3

  You need to cut the green onions and the tuna.
  Cut the green onions into slices and the tuna into very small pieces (teeny tiny pieces) like the picture.

  Step 4

  With your hands (or with the plastic thing I put a picture of, witch I didn't had at the time a made it, but makes things much easier) you'll shape the rice like the picture.
  Then you'll have to put a nori strip around the rice (I forgot to take a picture of this part, but you can see how it gets in the next step). It has to be a little over the rice, so you have space to put the tuna.

• 

  Step 5

  After your put the nori strip around the rice (I'm so sorry I forgot to take the picture!) you'll put the cutted tuna over the rice, inside of the nori circle.
  And in the end you just have to put a little sliced green onions over it.

  That's it! Easy, right? Just one more reason for you to love it! XD
  Now all you have to do is enjoy your sushi!
