A delectable fusion of sushi and casserole that’s perfect for families, featuring sushi rice, imitation crab, and creamy salmon.

  • Total Time: 45 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups uncooked sushi rice
  • 2 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tbsp white sugar
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 10 oz imitation crab
  • 8 oz salmon (about 2 cups of shredded cooked salmon)
  • 4 oz cream cheese
  • ⅓ cup Sriracha Mayo
  • Furikake
  • Seaweed snacks
  • Sesame seeds, for topping (optional)
  • Green onion, chopped

Instructions

  1. Cook sushi rice according to package instructions.
  2. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine rice vinegar, sugar, and salt. Microwave for about 30 seconds, or until sugar and salt are dissolved.
  3. Pour the vinegar mixture into the cooked rice and gently mix until well combined. Set the rice aside.
  4. To cook the salmon, season with salt and pepper. You can either throw it in the air fryer and cook at 400°F for 10-12 minutes, or bake it in the oven at 375°F for 15-17 minutes.
  5. In a large bowl, shred imitation crab and cooked salmon into pieces. Add cream cheese and Sriracha mayo. Mix everything together until smooth and well combined.
  6. Preheat the oven to 400°F and prepare a 9×9 inch or 9×13 inch baking dish.
  7. Assemble the Sushi Bake: Transfer the cooked sushi rice to the baking dish and gently press down to flatten it out. Sprinkle a generous amount of furikake onto the rice, then top with a layer of the salmon-crab mixture. Gently press down and smooth the surface.
  8. Bake at 400°F for 10-15 minutes.
  9. Take sushi bake out of the oven. Top with more Sriracha mayo, chili furikake, sesame seeds, and chopped green onions.
  10. To serve, scoop a spoonful of sushi bake and wrap it with a seaweed snack. Enjoy!
