So Miss M is a doughnut fiend. Along with being a waffle, a three times a week pancake monster and let’s make cupcakes everyday too person. I don’t blame her really as I love doughnuts too so we indulge together. Clearly, this is more about being a good mum than anything else. Clearly.

Freddy, on the other hand, is a rice addict. Sometimes I wonder if he is not more African than me in that need of his to eat some form of rice a couple of times a week. Again, me being the supportive partner and all that means I join him.

Sitting and thinking about what to make for Easter – something fun, tasty, healthier, creative and getting the whole family cooking together got me thinking how about to combine rice and doughnuts – and the answer was vegetable sushi doughnuts.
