Method
- 1
Rinse the sushi rice until the water runs clear and put it in a large pan with the dashi stock powder and 1.2 litres water.
- 2
Bring to the boil, then reduce to a gentle simmer and cook uncovered for 25-30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the rice has broken down into a thick, soupy porridge.

Meanwhile, poach the cod in a separate pan of simmering water for 5-6 minutes until it flakes easily and is opaque all the way through, then flake into large pieces.

Stir the soy sauce and most of the ginger into the porridge.

Ladle the porridge into bowls, top with the flaked cod and remaining ginger, and scatter with the spring onions to serve.
