Make your own Sushi:

Ingredients:
Sushi Grade Fish
Two vegetables or other fillings
Short-Grained Rice
Rice Vinegar
Nori (a thin sheet of seaweed, ideal for rolling sushi.)
Ginger Root
Wasabi
Soy Sauce

Method:
Prepare the rice vinegar by heating it with sugar and salt until they are dissolved.
Rinse the rice in cold water for several minutes. Bring water to a boil, add the rice, then cook over very low heat until the water is evaporated. Place Nori down on the bamboo mat covered with plastic wrap.
Spread the cooked rice onto the Nori, leaving about half an inch of space at the end. Line up your ingredients in the middle of the nori. Roll the sushi away from you, tighten as you go.
Cover your roll with the bamboo mat and press your hands over it to further pack the roll. Slice into pieces.
