Step-by-Step Instructions
- Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Combine with 2 ½ cups of water in a medium saucepan, boil, then simmer for 15-20 minutes.
- Remove the pot from heat, keeping the lid on to steam the rice for 5-10 minutes. Fluff with a fork and cool.
- Season the salmon fillet with salt and pepper, cook in an air fryer at 400°F for about 10 minutes, then flake into pieces.
- In the bowl with the salmon, mix in imitation crab, soy sauce, Kewpie mayonnaise, sriracha sauce, and sesame oil until combined.
- Preheat your oven to 400°F.
- Whisk rice vinegar, sugar, and salt in a small bowl, then fold the mixture into the cooled rice.
- Spread the seasoned sushi rice in a greased baking dish, layer with nori, then top with the salmon and crab mixture, pressing down gently.
- Bake for 10 minutes, then broil for an additional 2 minutes until golden brown.
- Remove from oven, drizzle with spicy mayo if desired, and garnish with sesame seeds and cilantro.
- Cool slightly, cut into squares, and serve warm with nori sheets, avocado, and cucumber.
