Ingredients

1 cup short-grain sushi rice

2 tbsp rice vinegar

1 tsp sugar

1/2 tsp salt

8 oz cooked shrimp, diced

2 tbsp mayonnaise

1–2 tsp sriracha (to taste)

1/2 cucumber, finely diced

1 avocado, diced or mashed

1 tsp lime juice (optional)

Furikake or sesame seeds for garnish

Optional: soy sauce or extra spicy mayo for drizzle

Instructions

  1. Cook sushi rice according to package instructions, then season with rice vinegar, sugar, and salt while warm. Let cool slightly.
  2. In a bowl, combine diced shrimp with mayonnaise and sriracha until evenly coated.
  3. Dice cucumber and mash or dice avocado, seasoning avocado with lime juice and salt if desired.
  4. In a lightly oiled 1-cup measuring cup or ring mold, layer rice, cucumber, avocado, and spicy shrimp, pressing each layer gently to compact.
  5. Place a plate on top and carefully invert the mold, tapping to release the stack.
  6. Garnish with furikake or sesame seeds, and optionally drizzle with soy sauce or extra spicy mayo before serving.

Notes

Best served fresh for optimal texture and flavor.

Swap shrimp with diced tuna or salmon for a sashimi-style variation.

Use brown rice or cauliflower rice for a lighter or gluten-free option.

Add mango salsa or pickled onion for extra brightness.

Store components separately in the fridge and assemble before serving.
