shrimp sushi with carrot, spring onion and green pepper, a side salad and a servings of wasabi, soy sauce and pickled ginger
i experimented with jasmine rice and royal purple rice longdan.co.uk/products/longdan-royal-purple-rice-1kg-gao-... both types are sticky rice. will definitely cook both again but the royal purple rice is tricky. i'll do a search and get some tips
update
i've just done a quick search and found this you tube www.youtube.com/watch?v=kiOkWU6wikE i've looked at it briefly and can see already that i should have soaked the royal purple rice overnight. i'll go back to this video later
further update
purple rice should be steamed
after soaking the purple rice for a few hours and rinsing it is steamed until softened and the seeds open and sticky
