To begin with marinade the chicken with all of the ingredients for the marinade and place in the fridge for an hour.

Whilst the chicken is marinating, prepare the sushi rice by following the method on the rice packet.

Once the rice is cooked and slightly cooled. Separate into 8 equal portions and press into a circular shape ( We used a circular jar and clingfilm for this.) Make sure that you compress the rice well, so the rice sticks together.

Once all 8 are pressed out place in a hot oiled frying pan and cook on each side for 5 minutes on a low heat and until golden brown.

Once cooked place to cool and make the mayonnaise by mix all ingredients together.

After all other components are ready take the chicken out of the fridge and coat in the flour and potato starch making sure you fully coat.

Once fully coated place in a saucepan with 2inches of hot vegetable oil and cook for 5-6 minutes turning every now and then.

Once all the chicken is cooked you can plate your meal putting one rice bun on the bottom before adding the chicken and mayonnaise before adding the other bun.
