Method
- 1
Cook the sushi rice according to the pack and keep warm.
- 2
Put the chicken mince in a small pan with the soy sauce, mirin, sake, half the caster sugar and the grated ginger. Cook over a medium heat, breaking up any lumps with chopsticks or a fork, for 8-10 minutes until no pink remains and the liquid has mostly cooked away.
- 3
Meanwhile, beat the eggs with the remaining sugar and a pinch of salt. Pour into a separate small pan over a low heat and stir constantly with chopsticks or several thin whisks to break the egg into fine, fluffy grains rather than a solid omelette; this takes 2-3 minutes.
- 4
Cook the peas in a little boiling water for 2 minutes, then drain.
- 5
Divide the rice between four bowls and spoon the chicken mince over one half and the egg over the other, so the two colours sit side by side.
- 6
Scatter the peas over the top for colour and serve straight away.
