Ingredients

25pieces

Sushi rice: 200 g (1 cup) sushi rice
Sushi rice: 350 ml (1 1/2 cups) cold water
Sushi rice: 30 ml (2 tbsp) rice vinegar
Sushi rice: 5 ml (1 tsp) sugar
Sushi rice: 2 ml (1/2 tsp) salt
A little neutral oil for the mould

Method

Rinse the rice under cold water, swirling it, until it runs clear, then cook it with the cold water in the Tupperware Microwave Rice Maker for 12 to 13 minutes at 600 W. Once it has rested for 10 minutes, stir in the vinegar-sugar-salt mixture made separately and let it cool to room temperature.
Brush the base and lid of the Tupperware Nigiri Party lightly with oil using the silicone brush.
Pack the base with rice right up to the rim using the slim silicone spatula, fit the lid back on and press down firmly.
Lift off the lid and turn out the rice pad. Repeat with the rest of the rice to make about 25 pads.
Split each prawn lengthways without cutting all the way through, open it out and lay one on each pad.
