Sushi Bake

Ingredients

• 4 cups freshly cooked rice
• 3 tablespoon Obento Sushi seasoning
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup furikake seasoning
• 1 big ripe mango diced
• 1 medium cucumber diced
• 1 medium avocado diced
• 2 cups grilled salmon shredded or cut into chunks (or kani or tuna)
• 200g cream cheese
• 1/4 cup japanese mayonnaise (plain or with sriracha flavour if desired)
• Salt to taste
• Seaweed or nori sheets

Method

1. Mix the sushi seasoning, salt and sugar in a small bowl. Make sure that the salt and sugar are dissolved well. Pop it in the microwave to dissolve it completely.
2. Pour the mixture into the freshly cooked rice. Mix it well until evenly distributed.
3. In another bowl, mix the japanese mayo/sriracha and cream cheese.
4. Add in the chopped/shredded grilled salmon, 2/3 of the mango, 2/3 of the avocado and 2/3 of the cucumber. The remaining ingredients will be used for topping. Add salt to taste.
5. In a rectangle pan, spread the sushi rice evenly then lightly press down. Sprinkle a thin layer of Fukikake on top of rice until fully covered.
6. Add the creamy topping then spread evenly. Sprinkle the remaining mango, avocado and cucumber bits and a bit more Furikake on top. Drizzle with Japanese Mayonnaise and Sriracha if desired.
7. Bake at 200°C for 15 to 20 minutes. Enjoy by scooping a portion then wrapping it in nori.
