Carefully drain the soaked rice and pour over the measured 180ml water. Bring to the boil then cover the pan with a lid and reduce the heat to very low. Leave the rice to steam and simmer gently for 20 minutes

When the rice has nearly finished cooking, prepare the sushi vinegar. Combine the vinegar, salt and sugar in a large bowl and place in a microwave for 10 seconds. One warmed through, stir well to dissolve the sugar

- 2.5g of salt

Remove the pan from the heat and transfer the cooked rice to the mixing bowl with the sushi vinegar. Mix together to combine, then set aside and leave to cool to room temperature
5
Preheat a deep-fryer to 170˚C

Prepare the garnish by deep-frying the leeks until crispy, then drain on a kitchen paper. Deseed the chillies, scrape away as much skin as possible and cut the skin into very fine julienne
- 2 red chillies
- 1/4 leek , cut into julienne

To make the wasabi paste, simply mix together the water and wasabi powder

Mix the salmon with all of the seasonings and set aside

To prepare the fillings, remove the seeds from the cucumber. Cut the flesh into 5cm long, 8mm wide batons
- 2 sheets of nori seaweed
- 1 cucumber
11
To assemble the uramaki, place a nori sheet on a cling film lined bamboo mat. Spread 100g of the sushi rice over the nori sheet and flip it over so that the rice is touching the cling film and facing landscape
12
Add some cucumber julienne along the front edge of the sushi rice then start rolling. As you roll, make sure you firmly keep the filling inside using your fingers
13
Once you have rolled the sushi, add half of the salmon meat along the top edge of the roll. Bring the mat up around the salmon to create a nice even shape
14
Repeat with the rest of the rice, the second nori sheet and remaining salmon then cut each roll into 6 pieces

To serve, add a small spoonful of tobiko to each uramaki then top with a pinch of the crispy leeks and red chilli. Sprinkle over some chives and serve with wasabi paste and pickled ginger
