Step-by-Step Instructions
- Begin by cooking the sushi rice according to the package instructions, typically around 20 minutes for perfect fluffiness. Once cooked, mix rice vinegar and sugar in a microwave-safe bowl for about 30 seconds until dissolved. Stir this mixture into the warm rice until evenly coated.
- While the rice cools slightly, preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a mixing bowl, combine the cubed salmon with light soy sauce, Kewpie mayo, sriracha, and sesame oil. Stir gently for about 2-3 minutes until the salmon is well-coated.
- Take your nori sheets and cut them into squares, approximately 4 inches in size.
- Lightly grease your muffin tin with cooking spray or brush it with a little oil. Take a nori square and press it firmly into the muffin tin, creating a cup shape. Add a generous scoop of prepared sushi rice, then layer the salmon mixture on top.
- Place the muffin tin in your heated oven and bake the cups for about 15 minutes.
- Once baked, remove the sushi cups from the oven and let them cool for a couple of minutes. Garnish with furikake and green onions.
