Sushi Rice

  • 2 cups dry sushi rice or calrose rice
  • 5 Tbsp rice vinegar divided
  • 2 Tbsp granulated sugar
  • ½ tsp salt

Sushi Bowl Dressing

  • ¼ cup light mayonnaise or regular mayonnaise
  • 1 ½ Tbsp sriracha
  • ¼ cup low-sodium soy sauce

Bowl Ingredients

  • 10 oz imitation crab or lump crabmeat torn or chopped
  • 1 ½ cups diced English cucumber
  • ¾ cup roughly chopped matchstick carrots
  • 1 sheet nori chopped or crumbled
  • 1 ½ Tbsp chopped pickled sushi ginger
  • 1 large avocado peeled and diced

Garnish

  • black and toasted sesame seeds for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Rinse rice under cold water until water runs clear, then drain.
  • Cook rinsed rice with 2 1/4 cups water in a saucepan; boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes. Let rest covered for 10 minutes.
  • Mix 4 Tbsp vinegar, sugar, and salt in a saucepan over medium heat until dissolved. Cool and pour over rice, then toss to coat.
  • Whisk together mayonnaise and sriracha in a small bowl. Transfer to a resealable bag.

  • Divide rice among bowls, top with crab mixture, spoon soy sauce mixture over, and drizzle with sriracha mayo.

Notes

Serve shortly after preparing to prevent avocado from browning.
