The simplest rolls (lunch box)
Description
Suitable for both holidays and everyday meals. Rolls are a very filling and healthy dish, so I strongly recommend trying them with different fillings. You can use shrimp, red fish, cream cheese, fresh vegetables, lettuce leaves, and herbs. If you have a little rice left over, you can make onigiri—a very tasty alternative to rolls. Be sure to serve the rolls with wasabi and pickled ginger; that makes their flavor richer. So, let's see—the appetizer is ready. Serve immediately.
