Description
Deliciously crispy rice topped with savory salmon, perfect for a flavorful meal.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups sushi rice
- 4 cups water
- 1 pound fresh salmon fillet
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon rice vinegar
- 1 avocado, sliced
- 2 green onions, chopped
- black sesame seeds for garnish
Instructions
- Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear.
- In a pot, combine rice and water, bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 18 minutes.
- Remove from heat and let it sit covered for 10 minutes.
- While the rice is cooking, prepare the salmon by marinating it in soy sauce, sesame oil, and rice vinegar.
- Heat a skillet over medium heat, then cook the salmon for about 4-5 minutes on each side until cooked through.
- Once the rice is done, spread it out on a baking sheet and let it cool slightly. Press the rice down to create a crispy layer.
- In the same skillet, add the pressed rice and cook until both sides are crispy and golden.
- To serve, top the crispy rice with sliced salmon, avocado, and garnish with green onions and sesame seeds.
Notes
- For added flavor, consider marinating the salmon longer.
- Use non-stick spray or oil to prevent the rice from sticking to the skillet.
