S

ushi is delicious, but it can be hard to recreate at home. However, there are plenty of ways to get the same great flavor in an easily assembled, at-home meal. This filling, delicious dinner is easily customizable and can be as simple as Emily Mariko’s viral salmon rice recipe from TikTok, or as complicated as a homemade poke bowl. Here is one way to make deconstructed sushi, but switch it up at home with your own favorite toppings and treats.

INGREDIENTS: • Rice • Sriracha or another form of hot sauce • Mayonnaise • Your favorite sushi fillings and whatever

you have around • Salmon • Seaweed • Carrots • Cucumbers • Avocado • Edamame • Green onion • Anything else you like

STEPS: Step 1: Cook the rice. It does not matter how. Microwave minute rice will still make a great bowl. Step 2: Prepare the salmon. If you are using generic salmon, cook it in your favorite way or try a new recipe online. For that classic sushi feel, invest in sushi-grade salmon or any salmon that can be safely consumed raw. This does not have to be expensive. Aldi has thinly sliced and reasonably priced pre-readied salmon that is easy to add to your bowl. Step 3: Thinly slice vegetables. Cut long, thin strips of the carrots, cucumbers, and avocado. Step 4: Make the spicy mayo. For this, combine equal parts Sriracha and mayonnaise in a small bowl. Mix thoroughly, then add to a small ziplock bag. Step 5: Prepare the bowl – it really is that easy. Start with a bed of rice, then add the salmon, vegetables, and other toppings. Step 6: Cut off a small corner of the ziplock bag and drizzle the spicy mayo on top. Step 7: Top with some green onion and enjoy.

Now you can get that great sushi flavor at home without spending money or getting frustrated when you cannot professionally roll sushi yourself. 64 | THREAD
