3.Gently spread the rice over the seaweed without pushing down, leave approximately a 3cm strip at the top of the seaweed uncovered. This will help seal the roll after rolling.

4.If using wasabi paste, smear a very small amount across the centre of the rice. Place your choice of ingredients in a row over the wasabi, making sure that the ingredients go to both ends. Don’t overfill as the sushi will be too difficult to roll. About 4-5 ingredients per roll is suitable.

5.Starting with the edge closest to you, pick up the mat with your thumb and forefingers and using your remaining fingers hold the filling in place while you start to roll away from you.

6.Roll forward gently but firmly. Moving the bamboo mat out of the way as you roll. Dip finger in water and slightly wet over the uncovered seaweed. Finish rolling, lightly press to shape. Unroll mat.

7.Place roll onto cutting board and using a very sharp knife cut into eight pieces.

8.Repeat with remaining rice, seaweed and fillings.

9.Serve with extra wasabi and Japanese soy sauce.
