Diwali sushi rolls bring together the best of both worlds: the richness of paneer tikka and the art of Japanese sushi-making. It’s a dish that looks global but tastes deeply Indian. The smoky paneer tikka balances perfectly with mint chutney, crunchy veggies, and sticky rice. These shushi rolls are simply customisable, as you can even add pickled onions or spicy mayo for extra zing. Perfect for Diwali house parties, these rolls are healthy, vegetarian, and easy to prepare ahead of time.
