Step-by-Step Instructions for Crispy Rice Sushi
- Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Cook in a rice cooker or pot with 2½ cups of water for 15-20 minutes.
- Transfer the cooked sushi rice to a bowl, cool slightly, and fold in rice vinegar, sugar, and salt. Spread on a baking sheet to cool completely for 30 minutes.
- Shape cooled sushi rice into small rectangular blocks, about 2x2x1 inches, ensuring they hold together.
- Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Fry rice blocks in batches for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown.
- Dice the sushi-grade tuna and mix with soy sauce, sesame oil, and half of the chopped green onions.
- Mix mayonnaise with sriracha to create the spicy mayo.
- Assemble sushi by placing tuna mixture on a fried rice block, topping with diced avocado and drizzling with spicy mayo. Finish with tobiko, sesame seeds, and green onions.
- Serve immediately for optimal crunch. Consider soy sauce on the side for dipping.
