Ingredients

  • 1 cup short grain sushi rice
  • 1-1/4 cups water
  • 2 tablespoons seasoned rice vinegar
  • 1 large avocado diced or sliced
  • 8 ounces imitation crab diced
  • 1 cup Persian cucumber diced or sliced
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 teaspoons sriracha
  • Sesame Seeds for topping
  • Green Onion for topping
  • Nori Furikake for topping

Instructions

  • Rinse the rice under cool water for 30-45 seconds, or until the water runs clear. 
  • Add the rice and water to a rice cooker and cook according to the bag instructions. If you don’t have a rice cooker, add the rice and water to a small saucepan set over medium-high heat. Bring the water to a boil and then reduce the heat to low. Cover with a lid and simmer for 18-20 minutes, or until the water is absorbed and the rice is tender. 
  • Add the cooked rice to a large bowl and drizzle over the rice vinegar. Stir to combine. Set the rice aside and cool completely before assembling the sushi bowls. 
  • To assemble the sushi bowls, divide the rice between four bowls. Top with avocado, imitation crab, and cucumber. 
  • Whisk together the mayonnaise and sriracha in a small bowl. If you prefer a thinner sauce (one that you can drizzle), whisk in 2 tablespoons of water. 
  • Serve the sushi bowls with spicy mayo on the side or drizzled on top. Garnish with sesame seeds, green onion, or nori furikake. 
  • Enjoy immediately. I do not recommend storing these bowls overnight as the rice will dry out and the avocado will brown. These bowls are best enjoyed immediately after assembly.
