Method

1. Place the chillies, lime zest, water, cinnamon and sugar in a saucepan. Bring to a gentle simmer, stirring until the sugar has dissolved.

2. Simmer for 3-4 minutes before removing the pan from the heat.

3. Place all the prepared fruit into the hot syrup and leave to cool.

4. For the sweet sushi rice, place all the ingredients in a pan, and stir and simmer for 5 minutes.

5. Reduce the heat until barely simmering, and cook until all the coconut milk has been absorbed.

6. Remove from the heat, cover with a lid and leave to stand for 10 minutes. Remove the lid and set aside to cool completely. Discard the cinnamon stick.

7. Roll the rice mixture into balls and serve with the salad. Drizzle the syrup over the fruit and accompany with a dollop of yoghurt before brining to the table.
