Description

A warm, comforting casserole that combines the delightful flavors of sushi without the fuss of rolling.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 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)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Cook the sushi rice according to the package instructions.
  3. In a mixing bowl, combine the rice vinegar, sugar, and salt. Stir until well dissolved, then fluff the cooked rice and fold in the vinegar mixture.
  4. Spread the rice evenly at the bottom of your baking dish and allow it to cool slightly.
  5. In another bowl, mix the diced salmon, mayonnaise, Sriracha sauce, sesame oil, and chopped green onions until combined.
  6. Spread the salmon mixture evenly over the rice in the baking dish.
  7. Bake for about 25-30 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and the top is slightly golden.
  8. Remove from oven and cool for a few minutes; garnish with additional green onions, nori strips, and tobiko.
  9. Serve warm, scooping out with a spoon.

Notes

Serve with a fresh salad and optional sides of extra Sriracha or soy sauce. Refrigerate leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
