Method

Step 1

Cook the sushi rice following the pack instructions, adding the sesame seeds while it’s cooking.
Step 2

Tip the beansprouts into a bowl with the pineapple, chilli, spring onions, lime juice, sesame oil and coriander and toss.
Step 3

Remove the skin from each mackerel fillet and cut it into bite-sized chunks. Heat a non-stick frying pan. Mix the teriyaki sauce and ginger and simmer for 2 minutes in the frying pan. Add the fish and stir carefully into the teriyaki sauce. Cook for 1-2 minutes until the fish is cooked and well coated.
Step 4

Put the pineapple salad, cucumber batons and sticky sesame rice in bowls and serve with the teriyaki mackerel – for piling into lettuce leaves and rolling up.
