For my last birthday we had a family lunch at a Japanese restaurant. My girls were enthralled watching the sushi chefs make the sushi rolls; they were also intrigued to find we were eating seaweed.
It was a really fun way for them to try lots of different textures and flavours. My youngest daughter loved California rolls; my eldest loved a sticky rice and chicken dish. I think it was yakitori with fried chicken. We have yet to test this recipe, but we did go home after this lunch and roll our own sushi one night.
We all had a great time constructing our own favourite combinations, as you can see from our pictures. As a Mum watching them do this together is very heartwarming especially when the whole activity ends with them enjoying delicious, healthy food around the table.
This is how we made the vegetarian sushi rolls.
