How to make a sushi panda for your bento box!
Start by washing your hands, as you'll be handling food.
First make your sushi rice by mixing in vinegar, a pinch of salt and a pinch of sugar.
TOP TIP: The stickier the rice, the better so sushi rice or jasmine rice is best.
Place the rice mix onto your cling film and wrap it into a tight ball.
To create a cute panda, cut a long strip from your nori (seaweed) to make your arms and legs. Then cut small circle shapes for your ears, eyes and nose. Be careful when using scissors. 🐼
Take out your rice ball and add your arms, legs, eyes and nose, so simple, but so gorgeous.
Get creative and see what other creatures you can make, check out our penguin in the video above, we love it! 🐧
To complete your lunch add some lettuce, carrots, cucumber, sweetcorn, tomatoes, grapes, cheese... whatever you fancy 🥗
