TRADITIONAL JAPANESE RECIPE: Here is what you should know about Salmon Nigiri Sushi. Nigiri is traditionally a slice of raw fish, usually prawn, tuna or salmon layered over pressed vinegared rice with a small amount of wasabi for added flavour.
Sashimi is an assortment of raw fish and is generally an assortment picked by the Sushi chef. Nigiri is a hand-formed ball of rice, with a slice of fish over the top. If you take out the rice, you have Sashimi!
Maki is a type of roll in which the seaweed wrap is on the outside of the roll. Rolls are when the rice is rolled on the outside and the seaweed wrap is rolled along the inside.

05 - Line a 20x20cm / 7.8x7.8in baking tin or similar-size dish with a double layer of cling film.
06 - Spread the Sushi Rice over the bottom of the tin ( the mixture will be a little sticky, so you may have to wet your hands to do this ).
07 - Cover the Rice completely with Smoked Salmon slices.
