Khyati's Health-O-Meter Says:

Sushi rice is virtually fat-free, and a typical sushi meal is low in both overall fat content and calorific value. Sushi rice prepared without frying or the addition of mayonnaise is naturally a low-calorie option. Brown rice has the added benefit of providing a little dietary fiber, which is beneficial to your digestive health. The way sushi rice is usually served, wrapped around individual sushi pieces aids portion control and can help you avoid overeating.

INGREDIENTS:
  • Brown rice raw - 30 g
  • White vinegar - 1 tbsp
  • Sugar - 1 tsp
  • Salt to taste
  • water - 2 cups
DIRECTIONS:
Step 1 Wash and soak the rice in water for 15 minutes. Drain the rice and cook the rice in the saucepan in 1 ½ cup of water adding salt to taste on a medium flame bring it to boil and lower the flame and cover with the lid and let it cook for 18-20 minutes. Step 2 Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, combine the 1 tbsp vinegar, sugar and salt and warm over moderate heat, stirring to dissulve the sugar. Step 3 Transfer the rice to a very large bowl. Sprinkle 1 tbsp of the seasoned vinegar all over the rice: Drizzle onto a spatula while waving the spatula back and forth.  Step 4 Cover the rice with a damp towel to keep warm.
