It's so simple to make sushi but,

people prefer to buy them then to make them.. lol

Now, let's learn to make this simple sushi..

Sushi filling need not be raw meat..

As I don't like to eat raw meat, my meat is

always cook or steam..

I thought of using the sashimi fish from the Japanese Market..

But the ingredients in it contains "Rice Wine" or "Sake"..

As I don't drink alcohol or Wine..

4) 20 minutes into the rice cooking, add the rice seasoning and stir gently.

5) Make the vinegar: Add all the vinegar ingredients and stir gently.

Put in the microwave for 30 secs to 1 minute.

6) Once the rice cook, put it aside for 5 minutes.
