Make the Rice
Wash the rice thoroughly under running water until water comes clear.
Leave the rice to drain in a colander for ten minutes.
Cook the rice with the water in a rice cooker.
After the rice is cooked, mix in the rice vinegar mixture and set aside for use.
Mold the Rice
Take a piece of cling wrap, place it on your palm, scoop 2-3 tbsp of white rice and squeeze tight to mould into the shape of the ghost. Set aside.
Take a piece of cling wrap, place it on your palm, scoop 2-3 tbsp of orange rice and squeeze tight to mould into the shape of the pumpkin. Set aside.
Use the seaweed to cut out the facial expressions for the pumpkin lantern and cute ghost. Use a tiny straw to poke into the ham for the cute ghost blushes.
To make the Frankenstein and pumpkin sushi, use the colored rice to make the sushi roll. Repeat the step 1-3.
Decorate the plate with the garnishes.
Sushi Roll
Take the piece of sushi mat, place the seaweed on the mat and spread sushi rice evenly over the mat.
Flip the seaweed over with the rice facing down on the mat, place cucumber, crabmeat and egg in the center and roll tight.
Cut into 8 equal length pieces.
