Method

Mix sugar, salt, and rice vinegar in a small saucepan, and gently bring to a boil while stirring. When the sugar and salt have dissolved, the rice marinade is ready.
Let the marinade cool before use.
Cook the rice following the instructions in The sushi rice recipe explains how to prepare the rice, or follow the instructions on the package.
Transfer the rice to a container, add a little of the marinade, and gently fold it in. The rice must not become too moist, so add the marinade gradually as needed.
Allow the rice to cool to room temperature.
Cut the cod fillet in half lengthwise, and julienne the cucumber and spring onion.
Add sunflower oil to a hot frying pan and cook the cod for 30 seconds on one side, then remove the pan from the heat and flip the fish.
Add soy sauce and sesame oil, and heat everything together. Remove the fish and pour the sauce over it.
Cut the nori sheet in half.
Cover the bamboo mat with plastic wrap.
Mix water with a little rice vinegar, and lightly moisten your hands to prevent the rice from sticking.
Place half of the nori sheet on the bamboo mat with the rough side up, spread an even layer of rice over the entire sheet, then flip it so the rice is facing down.
Distribute the cod, cucumber, and spring onion along the bottom edge of the nori sheet.
Roll using a bamboo mat.
Slice the avocado thinly and place the slices on the roll so they slightly overlap. Gently press the roll to shape it.
Cut each roll in two, then continue cutting in half until you have 8 pieces.

Serve with soy sauce, wasabi, and pickled ginger.
