How to make an easy sushi bake recipe

First, start with cooking 1 1/2 cups of sushi rice according to the package. (you can use a rice cooker ) If you cannot find sushi rice at your grocery store, you can substitute it with short-grain rice. Once the rice is cooked let it cool down for 10 minutes. Then to the rice add 1/4 cup rice vinegar and 2 tbl sesame seed oil and mix it with the rice using a fork.

Evenly spread out the sushi rice into an oven-safe casserole dish. On top of the rice sprinkle 4 tablespoons of Nori Furikake (which is a Japanese rice seasoning)

If you don’t have Furikake, you can use a few sheets of seaweed (nori), 2 tbl sesame seeds, and 1/2 tsp salt.

Next, shred the imitation crab into small pieces. You can either shred it using a fork or chop it with a knife.

Combine the salmon, imitation crab, and spring onion in a large bowl.

In a smaller bowl mix the 4 oz of room temperature cream cheese, 1 tbl sriracha sauce, and 6 tbl kewpie mayo using a fork, until it’s smooth. Then add to the salmon bowl. Combine both together in the large bowl.

Bake the sushi casserole bake

Preheat the oven to 350F

Drizzle the sushi bake with kewpie mayo and sriracha. You can also drizzle eel sauce if you’d like.

Bake for 25 minutes in the preheated oven, then turn the oven to broil and broil for just a few minutes. Watch it closely so it doesn’t burn. It’s ready when it is slightly golden.

Serve with any toppings you like, a few options are nori (seaweed sheets), cucumber, avocado slices, masago, unagi sauce, or jalapeno.

Substitutions

  • you can substitute the salmon with imitation crab if you’d like, use 1 1/2 lbs of imitation crab instead, or vice versa.
  • You can use American mayonnaise instead of Japanese mayo, although I do not recommend doing that. It changes the taste.
  • If you are sensitive to spice, you can skip the sriracha
  • If you would like you can use real crab meat, I use imitation crab meat because it is more affordable to feed my family

КАК ПРИГОТОВИТЬ ЛЕГКУЮ ЗАПЕЧКУ СУШИ


Во-первых, начните с приготовления 1 1/2 чашки риса для суши согласно упаковке. (вы можете использовать рисоварку) Если вы не можете найти рис для суши в продуктовом магазине, вы можете заменить его рисом с короткими зернами. Когда рис сварится, дайте ему остыть в течение 10 минут. Затем добавьте 1/4 стакана рисового уксуса и 2 столовые ложки кунжутного масла и смешайте вилкой с рисом.

Равномерно распределите рис для суши в форму для запекания. Поверх риса посыпать 4 столовые ложки нори фурикаке (японская приправа для риса).

Если у вас нет фурикаке, вы можете использовать несколько листов водорослей (нори), 2 столовые ложки семян кунжута и 1/2 чайной ложки соли.

Запечь лосося:

Разогрейте духовку до 420F

Обсушите лосося бумажными полотенцами, затем приправьте 1/2 ч.л. чесночной соли и 1/4 ч.л. молотого черного перца, затем сбрызните сверху майонезом из кеупи. Запекайте лосося в духовке 10 минут.

Как только лосось запечется, выньте его, чтобы охладиться. Разомните его вилкой. Убедитесь, что вы не используете кожу лосося.

Затем нарежьте имитацию краба на мелкие кусочки. Вы можете измельчить его с помощью вилки или измельчить ножом.

В большой миске смешайте лосося, имитационного краба и зеленый лук.

В миске меньшего размера смешайте вилкой 4 унции сливочного сыра комнатной температуры, 1 столовую ложку соуса шрирача и 6 столовых ложек майонеза из кепи, пока смесь не станет однородной. Затем добавьте в миску с лососем. Смешайте оба вместе в большой миске.

Равномерно распределите острую крабовую смесь поверх риса.

хочешь сделать это заранее?

Если вы хотите испечь это позже, держите его в холодильнике без выпечки и накройте саранской пленкой, пока вы не будете готовы к выпечке. Он может оставаться в холодильнике без выпечки 12 часов.

ЗАПЕКАТЬ суши запеканка
Разогрейте духовку до 350F

Сбрызните запеканку суши майонезом из кеупи и шрирачой. Вы также можете сбрызнуть соусом из угря, если хотите.

Выпекайте 25 минут в предварительно разогретой духовке, затем включите духовку и жарьте еще несколько минут. Следите за ним внимательно, чтобы он не сгорел. Оно готово, когда станет слегка золотистым.

Подавайте с любыми начинками, которые вам нравятся, например, нори (листья морских водорослей), огурец, ломтики авокадо, масаго, соус унаги или халапеньо.

На лист нори выложите немного запеченного суши, а затем посыпьте любой начинкой по своему вкусу. Получаются идеальные порционные кусочки!
