Sushi
Alright, folks, let's talk about sushi, my all-time favorite dish to make! Here's what you need: Sushi Rice, Rice Wine, Caster Sugar, Mayonnaise, Soy Sauce, and Cucumber. Now, let's get rolling! Pat out some rice on a nori sheet, shiny-side down. Remember to dip your hands in the vinegared water to avoid sticking. Spread the rice evenly, leaving the far edge clear for sealing. Oh, let me tell you about the first time I made sushi at home. I accidentally put way too much rice on the nori sheet and ended up with a giant sushi roll that barely fit in my mouth! Lesson learned: less is more when it comes to sushi rice. Pro tip: To make your sushi rolls extra tasty, try adding a sprinkle of sesame seeds on top before rolling. It adds a nice crunch and nutty flavor - you won't be disappointed! This homemade sushi recipe is all about the perfect balance of flavors - tender sushi rice, fresh cucumber, and creamy mayo all in one bite. Enjoy your sushi-making adventure, and remember, practice makes perfect!

TO MAKE SUSHI ROLLS: Pat out some rice. Lay a nori sheet on the mat, shiny-side down. Dip your hands in the vinegared water, then pat handfuls of rice on top in a 1cm thick layer, leaving the furthest edge from you clear.

Roll it up. Lift the edge of the mat over the rice, applying a little pressure to keep everything in a tight roll.

Stick down the sides like a stamp. When you get to the edge without any rice, brush with a little water and continue to roll into a tight roll.
