  3. Once the sugar is dissolved, turn off the heat and add 1 tbsp soy sauce and 1 tsp toasted sesame oil. Mix and remove from the stove. Leave to cool for about 10 minutes.
  4. Using sharp knife, cut 150 g sashimi-grade tuna and 50 g sashimi-grade salmon into thin strips. 
  5. Finely dice the tuna and salmon using a rocking motion with your knife. As the tuna and salmon spreads out, scrape it back to the centre and repeat, cutting in different directions each time until a "mince" is formed.
  6. Divide 2 portions cooked Japanese short-grain rice into portions and make a bed of 3 perilla (shiso) leaves and 2 tbsp shredded sushi nori seaweed "kizami nori".

  8. Mix well before eating and enjoy!
