The sushi burrito, also known as a 'sushirrito', was first invented in 2008 by Peter Yen, an entrepreneur from San Francisco. He was inspired by the handheld convenience of a burrito and the fresh flavours of sushi. The vegan variant of this recipe was later introduced to cater to the growing vegan population.
This recipe was inspired by a trip to a vegan restaurant in California, where sushi and Mexican flavours are often combined in exciting ways. The addition of mango adds a sweet twist that complements the creamy avocado and tangy sushi rice perfectly.
