Instructions
Make Sushi Rice:
- Add the rice to a mesh sieve and rinse until the water runs clear.Stovetop directions follow. Alternatively, use a rice cooker or Instant Pot to cook the rice, following the package or appliance directions for sushi rice.Note: If using short-grain rice instead of medium-grain, follow the package directions. Stovetop Directions:Add rice, water and salt to a small saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cover pot and lower heat to low. Cook rice for 20 minutes, and then remove from heat. Leave covered for an additional 10 minutes.After cooking:Keep the rice covered until you're ready to use. Stir in the rice vinegar just before serving.
Prepare the Salmon:
- If you're cooking the fish, check the recipe notes before proceeding.For raw salmon: If your fish has skin, place the fish skin-side up on a cutting board. Use a sharp knife (a fillet knife is best) to cut the skin off the fish, keeping the knife blade parallel to natural grain of the fish.
- Dice the raw salmon into small cubes. Alternatively, thinly slice the fish.Place the cubed fish into a shallow dish.Whisk together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, sugar, sambal oelek, garlic powder and cayenne (if using).Pour the sauce over the fish, and set the fish in the fridge to marinate for at least 15 minutes.
Cook the Marinade:
- After the fish marinates, pour the marinade into a small saucepan. Bring the sauce to a boil, and then simmer about 3 minutes or until thickened. Set aside.
Assemble the Poke Bowls:
- Mix together the mayo and sriracha. Taste, and add more hot sauce if desired.Scoop rice into the bowls. (You may have extra rice.)Sprinkle the furikake seasoning evenly over the rice. (If using nori instead, simply arrange it on the rice.)Add the fish to the bowls, and drizzle the marinade over the fish and rice. (Use as much of the marinade as you want; you might have extra.) Add the avocado and green onion. Drizzle the spicy mayo across the toppings (you might have extra).
- Serve pickled ginger, wasabi, and extra soy sauce on the side. Serve any extra marinade or spicy mayo on the side.Serve immediately.

Notes
- Cooking Salmon (Broiler): Marinate the salmon fillets (no need to remove the skin). Move an oven rack to about 4″ below the broiler. Remove salmon from marinade, and place salmon on an oiled oven-safe pan or sheet-pan. Cook about 6 minutes per one-inch thickness, or to desired doneness. Serve one fillet per bowl. Optionally, flake the salmon apart and remove the skin.
- Cooking Salmon (Oven): Marinate the salmon fillets (no need to remove the skin). Remove salmon from the marinade and place on an oiled oven-safe pan or sheet pan. Cook at 400°F for about 10 minutes per one-inch thickness, or to desired doneness. Peel off the salmon skin. Serve one fillet per bowl. Optionally, flake the salmon apart.
- Extra Topping Ideas:
- Nutrition information does not include wasabi and extra (optional) soy sauce.
- Marinate sliced Japanese or English cucumber in rice vinegar overnight. Strain cucumbers out of vinegar, toss with sesame seeds + serve.
