Ingredients
For the Sushi Rice:
- 4 cups cooked short grain rice aka sushi rice or calrose rice (or see below Notes for quantity of uncooked rice)
- 2 tablespoon rice vinegar or white vinegar
- 2 teaspoon white granulated sugar or cane sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
Toppings:
- 14 oz imitation crab meat peeled into thin strands and chopped into 1 inch long pieces
- 2 teaspoon Furikake or toasted sesame seeds and crushed roasted seaweed
- ½ cup Japanese mayo aka Kewpie mayo or sub with regular mayo
- ½ cup cream cheese light or regular both work
- 1 green onion finely chopped for garnish
Spicy Mayo:
- 4 tablespoon Sriracha
- 4 tablespoon Japanese mayo aka Kewpie mayo or sub with regular mayo
Serve with:
- 1 cucumber thinly sliced, or sub with sliced avocado
- 4 Nori sheets each sheet cut into 4 squares
Instructions
- First preheat the oven to 450 F. In a small bowl, combine rice vinegar, salt and sugar and mix until dissolved. This is your rice seasoning liquid.
- Transfer hot cooked rice into a medium bowl. Then mix in the rice seasoning liquid with a rice paddle.
- Then transfer seasoned rice to a lightly greased 9 x 11-inch baking dish. Firmly flatten and pack the rice down into the dish with a wet rice paddle. Sprinkle 1 teaspoon of furikake on top of the rice.
- In a large bowl, combine shredded and chopped imitation crab meat with Japanese mayo, and cream cheese.
- Add crab mixture top of rice. Spread it out evenly and firmly pack it in. Sprinkle the remaining furikake on top of crab meat mixture.
- In a small bowl, combine Japanese mayo and sriracha to make a spicy mayo. (Not a fan of spice? Substitute with more mayo and omit the sriracha). Drizzle spicy mayo on top of crab layer.
- Bake in the preheated oven at 450F for 15 minutes uncovered. Then broil at 500 F for 1 minute. If the sauce begins to char, place aluminum foil over top.
- Lastly garnish the sushi bake with green onions. Slice with a wet oiled knife into 16 equal pieces and serve warm with a small sheet of nori and fresh cucumbers or sliced avocado.

Notes
- 5 measuring cups or 300 grams of uncooked short grain rice is required to make 760 grams of cooked short-grain rice. Be sure to rinse the uncooked rice in cold water a few times until it turns clear and cook in a rice cooker or how you would normally cook your rice.
- Leftovers will last up to 4 days stored in an airtight container in the fridge. To reheat, microwave on high heat covered for 2-3 minutes until warm or re-bake it in the oven at 350 degrees F for 20-30 minutes until hot throughout.
- Freezer friendly? I don't recommend freezing leftover cooked sushi bake as the rice will turn hard after reheating.
