comfort food

My Mum died about a month ago and I have not been that organised in the food department but I am back on track and into life.
Last night my daughter and I were a little tired and a little lazy and had the perfect picky meal. It was fabulous and easy and eaten in front of an inane movie on the tele with the effortless gas fire burning in the background.
We had
chopped peppers and cucumber
hummus
pita-ia my daughter's time in Israel becoming obvious
stuffed vineleaves-why make when Waitrose does them so well
fried haloumi
home made sushi.
Sushi is much easier than people think. I do not have a roller there is really no need. I cook the rice by putting a cup of rice and 1 and 3/4 cups cold water in a covered dish in the microwave for 10 minutes.
When done add
2 tablespoons of sugar, sherry and white wine vinegar and a teaspoon of salt. Stir and left cool. Easy.
