Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350F (180C). Lightly grease 12 cavities of a muffin tin with non stick cooking spray or with a paper towel that has a little oil on it.
  2. In a medium bowl, add the cubed salmon, the mayonnaise, soy sauce, sriracha, and wasabi if using. Mix well to combine.
  3. In a separate bowl add the vinegar to the cooked sticky rice, and stir to combine.
  4. Cut each nori sheet into square pieces that will fit in the muffin cups with a bit of overhang.
  5. Place a tablespoon of sticky rice in each nori square, then place this into a muffin tin cavity, pressing firmly in so that the rice covered nori is at the bottom (see video). Once in the muffin tin, add a tablespoon of salmon mixture (3-4 cubes).
  6. Bake in the oven for 15 minutes or until salmon is cooked through. Broil for another 1-2 if you like the salmon crispy
  7. Garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions, and serve with sriracha mayonnaise and soy sauce or whatever you like!

Notes

  • Cut the nori wrappers in a way that they fill the muffin cups, but with a little overhang so they pop out easily.
  • Prep the rice in advance, even the day before. This is the perfect way to use up leftover rice and it'll save on time when assembling.
  • Let the sushi cups cool a little before eating, I personally prefer them cold or at room temperature.
  • Gluten free salmon sushi bake: To make gluten free salmon sushi muffins, make sure you use tamari instead of regular soy sauce.
  • Variations: Use canned or imitation crab, prawns, or tuna instead of salmon for a twist. You can also top the sushi cups with something else, like sweet chili sauce, edamame beans, cubed avocado, or teriyaki sauce.
  • Storing leftovers: Leftovers will last in a tightly covered container for up to 2-3 days. You can enjoy these cold, or if you prefer heat them up! I like them better cold or room temperature.
