Ingredients

2 cups sushi rice
2.5 cups water
3 tbsp rice vinegar
1 tbsp sugar
1 tsp salt
2 cans canned tuna in water, drained
1/2 cup Japanese mayonnaise
2 tbsp sriracha sauce
4 oz cream cheese, softened
1 tbsp soy sauce
1 tsp sesame oil
3 stalks green onions, chopped
6 sheets nori sheets
2 tbsp furikake seasoning
1 tbsp sesame seeds

Cooking Instructions

  1. 01

    Cook sushi rice according to package directions with 2.5 cups water. Once cooked, mix in rice vinegar, sugar, and salt while rice is still warm. Let cool slightly.

  2. 02

    Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin generously with cooking spray.

  3. 03

    In a bowl, combine drained tuna, Japanese mayonnaise, sriracha, cream cheese, soy sauce, sesame oil, and half the green onions. Mix until creamy and well combined.

  4. 04

    Cut nori sheets into strips that can line the muffin cups. Press nori into each cup, creating a cup shape.

  5. 05

    Press about 2 tablespoons of seasoned sushi rice into the bottom of each nori-lined muffin cup, creating a base layer.

  6. 06

    Spoon the spicy tuna mixture on top of the rice layer, filling each cup generously.

  7. 07

    Top each cup with a small dollop of extra mayo-sriracha mixture, then sprinkle with furikake and sesame seeds.

  8. 08

    Bake for 12-15 minutes until tops are golden and bubbling. Let cool for 5 minutes.

  9. 09

    Carefully remove cups from tin, garnish with remaining green onions, and serve immediately with extra soy sauce and sriracha on the side.

Review

The Caprese Salad Skewers recipe was a triumph! I prepared them for a party's barbecue and everyone loved them. The basil was so aromatic, the mozzarella so fresh, and the skewers were the perfect size and an appropriate.
