  • 3 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • ½ tsp salt
For the salmon topping
  • 1 lb salmon fillet or 2 cans cooked salmon, drained

Method
 

  1. Mix warm cooked sushi rice with rice vinegar, sugar, and salt. Press into a greased 9x13 baking dish in an even layer.
  2. Bake the salmon fillet at 400F (205C) for 12-15 minutes until it flakes, then flake it with a fork. Skip if using canned.
  3. Mix the flaked salmon with mayonnaise, cream cheese, sriracha, soy sauce, sesame oil, and green onions.
  4. Sprinkle furikake over the rice, then spread the salmon mixture evenly on top.
  5. Bake at 400F (205C) for 12-15 minutes until warm and lightly golden on top.
  6. Drizzle with extra sriracha and mayo, add more furikake. Scoop onto seaweed sheets with cucumber or avocado and eat like a hand roll.

Notes

For a golden top, broil the last 2 minutes. Fresh or canned salmon both work. Nutrition values are estimates.
