How it's done
Rice
Rinse the rice in a sieve under running water until it is clear. Drain well.
Add the rice and water to a pan and leave to absorb for approx. 30 mins. Bring to the boil with the lid off, reduce the heat until the water has evaporated, leaving small indentations on the surface of the rice, cover and leave to absorb over a low heat for approx. 10 mins., do not remove the lid.
To season the sushi rice
Warm the sugar, rice vinegar and salt in a small pan, stirring until the sugar has dissolved. Place the rice in a wide bowl, drizzle with the warm liquid.
Mix carefully with a fork for approx. 3 mins. while fanning. Cover the rice with a damp cloth and leave to stand for approx. 15 mins.
Omelette
Mix the egg, soy sauce and sugar. Heat the oil in a small non-stick frying pan. Pour in the egg mixture, cook over a medium heat, fold over in the middle.
Cut the omelette into strips approx. 1 cm wide.
Wasabi mayonnaise

To assemble the sushi burgers
With damp hands, shape the rice into 8 equal-sized patties.
