Sushi at home.

 

Sushi is easy to prepare and yummy to eat. Lock down 2.0 in Victoria had us looking for a family activity and the idea of making sushi was a hit with No. 1, 2 and 3 - which rarely happens. Hubby was dispatched to Suruzan Japanese Grocer in Camberwell and returned will all manner of fishy goodness.

Fish is a great source of high-quality protein and also contains vitamins and minerals such as potassium, selenium and B vitamins. Salmon and tuna are rich in omega-3 fatty acids which can help lower blood pressure and reduce inflammation.

If you are a fan of nori rolls, you will be pleased to hear that seaweed contains plenty of vitamins and minerals and very few kilojoules. Seaweed is a good source of protein and is high in Vitamins A, B6 and C, iron, iodine and manganese.

Make yourself some vegetable nori rolls or vegetable tempura and you have a healthy dinner for everyone.

Remember to limit your intake of tuna to no more than once a week due to its high mercury concentrations. Try sushi with shellfish like prawns and scallops as an alternative
