Description

A comforting twist on classic sushi, combining spicy salmon and baked rice for a delightful flavor experience.


Ingredients

  • 2 cups sushi rice
  • 2 1/2 cups water
  • 1 pound fresh salmon fillet
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise (preferably Kewpie)
  • 2 tablespoons sriracha sauce (adjust to taste)
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 green onion, thinly sliced
  • Seaweed sheets, for serving
  • Optional: avocado slices and cucumber for garnish


Instructions

  1. Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear, then combine with water in a rice cooker. Cook according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
  2. While the rice is cooking, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  3. Dice the salmon into small pieces and place in a bowl. Mix in the mayonnaise, sriracha, soy sauce, and sesame oil until thoroughly combined.
  4. Once the rice is cooked, spread it evenly in a greased baking dish.
  5. Top the rice with the salmon mixture, spreading it in an even layer.
  6. Bake for about 20-25 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and the top is golden.
  7. Remove from the oven and sprinkle with sliced green onions before serving.

Notes

Serve with crispy seaweed sheets for texture and consider adding avocado slices or cucumber for freshness.
