Maki sushi or sushi rolls can be a fun and creative way to eat healthily, as you can make plenty with children (not the cutting part!) or with friends, and fill them with anything you like. There are a million and one recipes for these online, but here’s how I made them, based on instructions on the back of the sushi rice and nori packets and on memory from having made them with Japanese friends in the past.
First you need to have the basics to hand. It’s all about being organised and having everything ready, so that you can start assembling. I only made three rolls with the ingredients below, but after making them and tidying and washing up, I realised I should have made far more, and saved them for dinner. Which is why having friends or family over to make them and then eat them together is recommended. Otherwise it’s a lot of work for just three rolls!
