Instructions

For the Sushi Rice
    Cup of Yum
  1. Rinse the rice under cold water until the water becomes clear. Drain well.
  2. Place rice and 1 ½ cups water in a medium saucepan over high heat. Bring to the boil. Then, reduce the heat to low and bring it to a simmer. Gently stir the rice. Cover the rice and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and then allow to rest for 15 minutes covered.
  3. Transfer the cooked rice to a glass bowl. Break up the rice using a wooden spoon and gently mix through the vinegar, sugar, and salt.
  4. When the rice has become cool, cover with a damp tea towel. Set this aside.
For the Topping
  1. In a medium size bowl, add crab stick, Japanese mayonnaise, nori, green onions, cucumber, sriracha, and salt. Mix until well combined.
For the Furikake
  1. In a frying pan over low heat, toast the sesame seeds until lightly golden. Mix through the crumbled nori sheets and season with salt and sugar.
Putting It Together
  1. Using a 22 x 13 cm (8.66 inches x 5.12 inches) baking dish lined with parchment paper, spread the sushi rice evenly and lightly press it down. Sprinkle some of the furikake over the top of the rice.
  2. Place the prepared topping on top. Then sprinkle the remainder of the furikake evenly.
  3. Bake in a preheated oven at 200 degrees Celsius (392 degrees Fahrenheit) for 15 to 20 minutes.
  4. Drizzle Japanese mayonnaise and sriracha on top if desired.
  5. Cut into pieces and serve on cut nori sheets.
