SUSHI RICE
Rinse the rice under cold water until the water runs clear. (This prevents the rice from becoming stodgy.) Place in a pot with 250ml of fresh water, pop on a lid, and place over a medium-high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat and simmer for 10-15 minutes until the water has been absorbed and the rice is tender. On completion, remove from the heat and fluff up with a fork. Replace the lid and set aside to keep warm.
IN THE MEANTIME…
Get those mushies golden! Gently wipe the mushrooms clean with damp cloth or paper towel and roughly slice. Place a nonstick pan over a high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the mushrooms for 3-5 minutes until golden, shifting as they colour. Remove from the pan on completion, season, and set aside.
UMAMI FLAVOURS
Trim the base off the pak choi and rinse well. Slice the green leaves in half lengthways and set aside. Finely slice the stems. Return the pan to a medium heat with another drizzle of oil if necessary. When hot, fry the pak choi stems for 2-3 minutes until slightly softened, shifting regularly. Add the grated garlic and sauté for 1 minute. Add the miso paste and sauté for another minute until fragrant. Reduce to a low heat and add the sliced pickled peppers, pak choi leaves, and fried mushrooms. Stir in the sesame-soy sauce and 15ml of water. Bring to a simmer and cook for 2-3 minutes until slightly reduced, stirring occasionally. Remove from the heat on completion.
