Ingredients

Instructions

  • Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear.

  • While the rice cooks, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • In a mixing bowl, flake the salmon into bite-sized pieces and set aside.
  • In a large bowl, mix mayonnaise, Sriracha, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and sesame oil until combined.
  • Once the rice is cooked, gently fold in the flaked salmon and the spicy mayo mixture until everything is well combined.
  • Spread the salmon and rice mixture evenly in a baking dish and top with sliced green onions and nori strips.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the top is golden brown and heated through.
  • Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
