Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups cooked sushi rice
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 8 large shrimp, cooked and sliced
  • 1 avocado, thinly sliced
  • 1 cucumber, julienned
  • 1 small carrot, julienned
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon sriracha
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)
  • 1 tablespoon teriyaki sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
  • 1 sheet nori, cut into thin strips
  • Optional garnish: sliced green onions or pickled ginger

Instructions

  1. Cook the sushi rice according to package directions. While still warm, season with rice vinegar, sugar, and salt. Fold gently until combined and let cool to room temperature.
  2. Bring a pot of salted water to a gentle boil. Add the shrimp and cook for 2–3 minutes, until pink and opaque. Drain, cool, and slice lengthwise.
  3. Slice the avocado into thin strips. Julienne the cucumber and carrot. Prepare optional garnishes such as green onions or pickled ginger.
  4. In a small bowl, mix mayonnaise with sriracha to create spicy mayo. In another small bowl, set aside soy or tamari sauce. Use teriyaki sauce as a glaze for sweetness.
  5. Place the cooled sushi rice at the bottom of serving bowls. Layer cucumber and carrot evenly over the rice. Arrange avocado slices in a fan shape. Lay sliced shrimp over the avocado.
  6. Drizzle spicy mayo across the shrimp. Add a light drizzle of teriyaki sauce. Sprinkle sesame seeds and shredded nori strips on top.
  7. Garnish with green onions and a side of pickled ginger. Serve immediately.

Notes

Keep rice at room temperature for the best texture.

Adjust sauce quantities to suit your taste.

For a vegetarian option, replace shrimp with tofu or mushrooms.
