going Japanese

I'm quite pleased with myself - i made this Japanese lunch for hubby! Onigiri and inari sushi. Actually, these were so easy to make, a 4 yr old could've done it. The onigiri were bonito flake and soy sauce filled rice balls shaped into a triangle, then stuck with a seaweed strip. The inari was the easiest - you can buy the tofu skins in packets from asian grocers, these were around $3 for a pack of 8 skins. Just stuff them with sushi vinegar-ed rice. The tray was saved from a sushi takeaway meal [something as pretty as that should be reused!]
Then I decided to show off my pretty sakura ceramic plate that I got in Malaysia.
here they are again! Gav said they tasted okay.

Ooooh my mouth is watering! I LOVE Japanese food! I have some of those takeaway containers too - can't bear to throw them out either. Did you get yours at Suzuran in Hawthorn?
