Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups cooked short-grain white rice, seasoned with 2 tablespoons rice vinegar, 1 teaspoon sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 8 ounces imitation crab meat (or real crab), shredded
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons Sriracha sauce (adjust for spice level)
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon soy sauce
  • 1/2 avocado, sliced
  • 1/2 English cucumber, thinly sliced
  • 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
  • 1 green onion, thinly sliced
  • Optional: Nori sheets, crumbled, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Prepare the sushi rice: While the rice is still warm, gently mix in the rice vinegar, sugar, and salt until combined. Let it cool slightly.
  2. Make the spicy crab salad: In a medium bowl, combine the shredded crab meat, mayonnaise, Sriracha sauce, sesame oil, and soy sauce. Mix until the crab is evenly coated.
  3. Assemble the bowl: Divide the seasoned rice evenly between two serving bowls. This forms the base of your deconstructed sushi bowl.
  4. Layer the toppings: Arrange the spicy crab salad, sliced avocado, and sliced cucumber neatly over the rice in each bowl.
  5. Garnish: Sprinkle the toasted sesame seeds and sliced green onion over the top of the bowls. If desired, crumble a small amount of nori over the ingredients for extra flavor.
  6. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, you can lightly sear the crab mixture in a pan for one minute before adding it to the bowl.
  • If you prefer a lighter dressing, substitute half of the mayonnaise with plain Greek yogurt.
  • This recipe works well for Asian inspired meal prep; store the rice, crab mix, and vegetables separately and assemble just before eating.
