Wash the sushi rice thoroughly with water. Add two cups water and cook the rice in a rice cooker. 
In a pan, add the rice wine, sugar and soya sauce, mix well and heat until it comes to a gentle boil. remove from heat and cool.

Once the rice is cooked, remove the lid. Add the rice wine mixture, incorporating it well into the rice. let the rice cool a bit before you start rolling out the sushi.

To roll the sushi, take a sushi mat on the counter, put one sheet of seaweed - shiny side up. Layer it thinly with the rice. 



Take a tablespoon of the salmon and mayo mixture and spread it on the end closer to you as this will make the rolling part easy.



Now gently lift the end of the mat rolling the sushi roll away from you thus:
