Many American people think that all Japanese people can make sushi... Because of that, I wanted to make something that would make people happy.

It's easier to eat with plenty of sesame seeds because it doesn't stick to your fingers. It's also easier to cut the roll if you use a tightly wrung out cloth to clean and wet the knife every time you slice into the roll.

Steps

1

Cook the rice (using a little less water than the usual amount). Cut the ingredients into long strips of about 1 cm thick (or thinner).
2

Add sugar into the rice vinegar and heat to boil. Add salt to adjust the taste and let cool.
3

Transfer the freshly cooked rice into a Japanese wooden sushi bowl and mix with vinegar. Use a fan to cool off the rice as you mix and let cool. Once the rice has cooled, lay a tightly wrung out cloth on top.
4

Place the plastic wrap, then the dried seaweed, rice and finally the sesame seeds on top of a sushi mat in that order. Spread out a thin layer of rice; enough to see the seaweed below (leave 1 cm of both top and bottom edges of the seaweed uncovered with rice).
5

Flip the seaweed paper over and place the ingredients for the filling. Add a generous amount of mayonnaise and sweet chilli sauce on top and roll.
6

Leaving the plastic wrap on, wet your knife with water and cut the roll into 6-8 pieces and you're done.
