Customizable with different fish or plant-based options, it delivers bold flavors and delightful textures in every bite.

Ingredients

Scale

Base

  • 2 cups short-grain sushi rice
  • 3 tablespoons rice vinegar (natural)

Spicy Salmon Mixture

  • 8 ounces fresh sushi-grade salmon, diced
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise (plant-based)
  • 2 tablespoons sriracha (natural) – adjust to taste
  • 1 tablespoon vegetarian Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 green onions, chopped

Toppings

  • 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 cup plant-based cheese (plant-based), shredded (optional)

To Serve (Optional)

  • Cucumber, sliced
  • Nori sheets
  • Toasted sesame seeds (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the sushi rice: Rinse the sushi rice thoroughly under cold water until the water runs clear. Cook the rice according to the package instructions. While still warm, transfer the rice to a wide bowl and gently fold in the rice vinegar (natural) to season and add a slight tang to the rice.
  2. Make the spicy salmon mixture: In a mixing bowl, combine the diced fresh salmon, plant-based mayonnaise, sriracha (natural), vegetarian Worcestershire sauce, and chopped green onions. Stir until evenly mixed and creamy, forming the flavorful filling for the bake.
  3. Assemble the bake: Spread the seasoned sushi rice evenly in a baking dish, pressing gently to form a compact layer. Carefully spread the spicy salmon mixture on top of the rice layer, smoothing it out. If desired, sprinkle shredded plant-based cheese (plant-based) over the salmon mixture, then evenly top with panko breadcrumbs for a crispy finish.
  4. Bake until bubbly and crispy: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the assembled baking dish in the oven and bake for 10 to 15 minutes until the topping is golden brown and bubbling. The breadcrumbs will form a crunchy contrast to the creamy salmon underneath.
  5. Serve and enjoy: Allow the sushi bake to cool slightly before serving. Serve with sliced cucumber and nori sheets on the side to balance the rich and spicy flavors. Garnish with additional green onions or toasted sesame seeds if desired.

Notes

  • Use freshly cooked sushi rice and avoid overmixing to keep rice grains tender and intact.
  • Always select fresh sushi-grade salmon for best flavor and texture.
  • Adjust the amount of sriracha (natural) according to your preferred spice level.
  • Add a natural gelling agent if you want a firmer topping texture.
  • Let the baked dish rest for a few minutes before slicing to achieve clean layers.
