Method

  1. 1

    Cook the sushi rice according to the pack and keep warm.

  2. 2

    Peel the mooli and cut into thick rounds. Whisk the dashi stock powder into 350ml water in a wide pan and add the mooli, ginger, soy sauce, mirin and caster sugar.

  3. 3

    Bring to a simmer, cover with a lid slightly ajar and cook for 15-18 minutes until a skewer slides through the mooli easily.

  4. 4

    Add the squid rings and simmer gently for 2-3 minutes only, until just firm and opaque; overcooking will make them tough.

  5. 5

    Serve over bowls of the rice, spooned with the broth.
