Time 40m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 cups water
1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more to taste
1 cup sushi rice, rinsed until the water runs clear
1 tablespoon sugar
¼ cup rice vinegar
1 tablespoon canola oil
⅓ cup panko breadcrumbs
½ teaspoon pepper, plus more to taste
¼ cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon siracha
16 oz crab, 2 cans, drained
1 persian cucumber, thinly sliced
4 radishes, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons nori, thinly sliced
1 bunch scallion, thinly sliced on the bias
1 tablespoon sesame seed
2 tablespoons pickled ginger
1 avocado, diced

Steps:

  • In a small pot, season the water with a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil over high heat. Add the rinsed rice and return to a boil. Cover, reduce the heat to simmer, and cook for 20 minutes, until the water is absorbed and the rice is tender.
  • In a small bowl, stir together the sugar, salt, and rice vinegar. Microwave for 2 minutes, or until the sugar dissolves.
  • Transfer the cooked rice to a medium bowl and pour the vinegar mixture over it, then stir well using a wooden spoon.
  • Heat the canola oil in a medium pan over medium-high heat. Once the oil begins to shimmer, add the panko and cook, stirring frequently, until golden brown, 1-2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, and remove from the heat.
  • In a small bowl, stir together the mayonnaise and Sriracha until smooth.
  • To assemble the bowls, divide the seasoned rice between 2 serving bowls. Top with the crab, crispy panko, cucumber, radish, nori, scallions, sesame seeds, pickled ginger, and avocado. Drizzle the Sriracha mayonnaise over the top.
  • Enjoy!
