Sushi-Bowl


My cousin Joanne recently bought me some packet bonito flakes to try out - a mixture of sesame seeds, seaweed, bonito flakes & seasoning, it's a delightful crunchy addition to any plain old boring bowl of rice.

Actually it might not be bonito, i can't read Korean? If anybody can translate it for me that'd be great :O)

step 1 : rice


step 2 : sprinkling of packet mixture

step 3 : add chopped cucumber (or avocado) (or both)

step 4 : tuna

step 5 : cut up sushi paper & kewpie mayonnaise



step 6 : enjoy!


Another idea is to mix the bonito flakes through a small bowl of rice, and shape into onigiri like below ^_^

  2. Nice photos! I bought a huge bag of bonito the other day - it looks similar to yours, but I think it's Japanese.

  3. Those sprinklings are easy to make yourself too! They often contain just sesame seeds with lots of salt and some other spices. This is such a simple yet delicious meal!

  5. My mum came back from Japan with tonnes of different packets of bonito with seaweed etc to sprinkle over rice. Its so delicious. Its great as a quick bite to eat when you just want something easy and satisfying. Love the mayo on top. Japanese mayo is delicious.

  8. What is bonito?

    Looks a great way to 'spice-up' rice.
