Ingredients
– 2 cups dry sushi rice or calrose rice
– 5 tablespoons rice vinegar, divided
– 2 tablespoons sugar
– 1/2 teaspoon salt
– 1/4 cup light or regular mayonnaise
– 1 1/2 tablespoons sriracha
– 1/4 cup soy sauce
– 10 ounces imitation crab or lump crabmeat, torn or chopped into small bite-size pieces
– 1 1/2 cups diced English cucumber
– 3/4 cup roughly chopped matchstick carrots
– 1 nori sheet, chopped or crumbled into small pieces
– 1 1/2 tablespoons chopped pickled sushi ginger
– 1 avocado, peeled and diced
– Black and toasted sesame seeds for garnish
Instructions
1-Rinse the rice: Rinse the rice under cold water until the water runs clear and drain well.
2-Cook the rice: Transfer the rice to a saucepan with 2 1/4 cups water, bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let rest covered for 10 minutes.
3-Prepare vinegar mixture: In a small saucepan, combine 4 tablespoons of rice vinegar with sugar and salt. Heat over medium heat until the sugar dissolves, then cool and pour over the cooked rice. Toss to coat evenly.
4-Make spicy mayo: Whisk together mayonnaise and sriracha, then transfer to a resealable bag for drizzling.
5-Prepare soy sauce mixture: Whisk together soy sauce and the remaining 1 tablespoon vinegar, and set aside.
6-Prepare crab mixture: In a large bowl, gently toss the crab meat, cucumber, carrots, nori, pickled ginger, and avocado, or keep the ingredients separate to layer in bowls over the rice.
7-Assemble bowls: Divide the rice into 4 or 5 bowls. Top with the crab mixture.
8-Drizzle sauces: Drizzle the soy sauce mixture over each serving. Cut a small tip from the mayo and sriracha bag and drizzle over each bowl.
9-Serve immediately: Serve shortly after assembling to prevent the avocado from browning.
10-Garnish: Garnish with black and toasted sesame seeds.
