Description

A delicious twist on traditional sushi served warm in a bake. Perfect for family dinners and gatherings, customizable to your taste!


Ingredients

  • 2 cups sushi rice (uncooked)
  • 2.5 cups water
  • 1/4 cup rice vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 lb fresh salmon fillet (skinless and diced)
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons Sriracha sauce (or to taste)
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1/2 cup green onions (chopped, plus extra for garnish)
  • 1 sheet nori (cut into small strips)
  • To taste tobiko (optional for garnish)


Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Cook the sushi rice according to package instructions. Rinse under cold water, then combine with water in a rice cooker or pot until tender.
  3. In a mixing bowl, combine rice vinegar, sugar, and salt. Stir until dissolved. Once cooked, fluff the rice and gently fold in the vinegar mixture.
  4. Spread the rice evenly at the bottom of a baking dish and let it cool slightly.
  5. In another bowl, mix the diced salmon, mayonnaise, Sriracha sauce, sesame oil, and green onions until well combined. Adjust spiciness to preference.
  6. Spread the salmon mixture evenly over the rice in the baking dish.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and the top is slightly golden.
  8. Let cool for a few minutes. Garnish with additional green onions, nori strips, and tobiko if desired.
  9. Serve warm, scooping out the bake with a spoon, and enjoy!

Notes

Pair with pickled ginger and soy sauce. Adjust Sriracha to taste and feel free to add other garnishes like avocado or sesame seeds.
