Hmmm. It might work if you thinly slice the rolled sushi.

No, I don't think so. Reading http://dictionary.reference.com/search?
q=sushi seems to describe the style very nicely:
"Cold cooked rice dressed with vinegar"
"shaped into bite-sized pieces"
"topped with raw or cooked fish"
"or formed into a roll with fish, egg, or vegetables and wrapped
in seaweed."
