Sushi Bake (with Canned Tuna)

Cup uncooked

Cup rice vinegar (Substitute

Tablespoon white sugar

salt

¼-⅓ Cup Furikake seasoning

¾ Cup Mayonnaise

Tablespoons Cream cheese

Cans Tuna

avocado (sliced, cold out of the fridge)

Sesame oil (Drizzle)

Green onions (sliced thin)

Tablespoon sesame seeds (white, black

Nori Sheet (Roasted, preferably,

Optional, for a crispy rice bottom: coat a thin baking pan with some sesame oil.

Cook short grain rice as you normally do. (Add 1 piece of dried kelp if you have it for more flavor.)

When the rice is cooking, microwave the vinegar, sugar and salt so that the sugar dissolves in the vinegar. Alternatively, you can just use ready-made sushi seasoning.

After that, stir the softened cream cheese, mayo and drained tuna until it is evenly mixed.

Once the rice is cooked, scoop it into a large bowl then use the flat rice scoop (or spatula if you don&#39;t have 1) to mix the sushi seasoning into the rice by cutting and folding the rice. (Not stirring- this makes the rice mushy.) If you want more savory food, add some sesame oil too. (This will make it more like Korean Kimbap than Japanese sushi.)

Spread the rice onto the baking dish then top with 1/2 the furikake, followed by the tuna mix, then the rest of the furikake. (If you want it spicier, you can add some chili flakes now.) Try to get them in even layers.Tip: taste it now- everything is cooked- to see if the flavor is sufficient. If not, add more seasoning!

Bake in a pre-heated oven at 425F/ 218.3C for 12-15 minutes or till the top turns golden brown and bubbly.

Whilst the dish is in the oven, cut the avocado and other garnishes then place on the dish once out of the oven.

Enjoy with seaweed, sliced cucumber and pickled ginger!

Cook the sushi rice. Place the sushi rice in a colander and wash until the water runs clear. Cook the rice according to your preference (rice cooker or on the stove).

Make spicy mayo. In a small bowl, add the spicy mayo, sriracha, and lime juice. Mix until creamy and smooth. Set aside.

Spicy Mayo

Make crab filling. In a large mixing bowl, add the kewpie mayo, cream cheese, soy sauce, sesame oil, sriracha, and green onions and mix until combined. Then add the chopped crab and gently fold until the crab is evenly coated. Set aside.

Crab Filling

Preheat oven to 425°F (218°C). Preheat the oven to 425ºF (218°C) and place the oven rack in the middle of the oven. Lightly grease a casserole dish or 9x9&quot; square baking dish.

Add rice and furikake seasoning. Add an even layer of rice to the baking pan. You can add as much rice as you’d like for a desired thickness. Gently pat the rice to compact it together. Sprinkle an even layer of furikake seasoning over the rice.

Add crab mixture. Add an even layer of the crab mixture over the rice and press down firmly.

Bake. Bake at 425ºF for about 10 to 15 minutes until golden on top. For more crispiness and color on top, you can broil it for a few minutes until slightly charred but keep a close eye on it so it doesn’t burn.

Serve. Drizzle with spicy mayo, unagi sauce and top with green onions and sesame seeds. Serve with roasted seaweed snacks, avocado and cucumber slices!

Assemble and Bake.
