Ingredients

  • 2 cups sushi rice cooked
  • 2 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoon sriracha
  • 2 tablespoon lime juice
  • 8 oz salmon diced
  • 5 oz Imitation crab chopped or shredded
  • 2 medium avocados cut into cubes
  • 4 large nori sheets
  • Chopped green onions garnish

Instructions

  • Cook the sushi rice according to the package instructions and transfer it to a bowl. Add rice vinegar and sugar. Mix it well and set it aside.
  • In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, sriracha, and lime juice. Mix it well.
  • Add half of the spicy mayo to the diced salmon and the other half to the imitation crab. Toss to combine and keep both bowls aside.
  • On a plate, place a nori sheet and keep a ring mold. Start with a rice layer followed by a salmon layer, avocado, and crab layer, and finally add a layer of rice again.
  • Carefully remove the ring and fold the nori sheets so they cover entirely.
  • Place the sushi burger in a cling wrap, tightly wrap it again, and allow the burger to rest for 15 minutes at least.
  • Slice the burger vertically and remove the cling wrap. Garnish with green onions and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Use Sticky Rice: Ensure the sushi rice is properly cooked and sticky to hold the burger buns together.
  • Slice Ingredients Thinly: Thin slices of fish, avocado, and cucumber ensure easy stacking and biting.
  • Wrap Tightly with Nori: Wrap the nori sheets tightly around the rice buns to prevent them from falling apart.
  • Serve Immediately: Enjoy the Sushi Burger immediately after assembling to maintain the freshness and texture of the ingredients.
