Method

Rinse 500g sushi rice in a bowl of water, drain and repeat at least 4 times then drain rice with a sieve.  Put 660 ml water and the washed rice into a saucepan. Bring to the boil and simmer for 10 minutes with the lid on.  Turn off the heat and leave to stand for 25-30 mins without opening the lid.

Mix the rice vinegar, sugar and salt together and fold into the cooked sushi rice after it has cooled down.

Spiralise ½ carrot and thinly slice the other half – using flower cookie cutters, cut out shapes in various sizes and repeat same with the beetroot and the courgette. Using

Yutaka Tofu, slice off about 3 thin pieces and repeat flower cutter process.

To make up the bouquet

Roll a nori sheet into the shape of a cone and fill with the sushi rice. Make a well in the centre with your finger and add your fillings, then cover over with rice so they are hidden.

 Top with one of the spiralized vegetables and place a flower of your choice on top (secured with a cocktail stick). Repeat process with a new cone and with another vegetable until you have three cones featuring spiralized veggies.

With the remaining nori sheets, make additional cones, add rice plus fillings and tuck in a small lettuce leaf or three depending on their size and top with 3 flowers (again secured with a cocktail stick).

The bouquet can then be wrapped in tissue paper and cellophane and tied up with ribbon.
