Ingredients

Scale

Spicy Crab Mixture

  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 3 to 4 tablespoons sriracha sauce
  • 8 ounces imitation crab meat, chopped

Rice

  • 2 to 3 cups cooked jasmine rice (about 2 pouches of microwavable rice)

Optional Toppings

  • Soy sauce, to taste
  • Wasabi, to taste
  • Pickled ginger, to garnish
  • Sesame seeds, for garnish
  • Green onions, thinly sliced, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Prepare the spicy crab mixture: In a bowl, combine the mayonnaise and sriracha sauce by stirring until smooth and fully mixed. Add the chopped imitation crab meat to the bowl and fold gently until the crab is thoroughly coated with the spicy mayo mixture.
  2. Assemble the bowls: Evenly divide the cooked jasmine rice between two serving bowls, creating a fluffy rice base for each. Spoon the spicy crab mixture over the top of the rice in each bowl, spreading it out to cover the surface.
  3. Add optional toppings and serve: Garnish your sushi bowls with soy sauce, wasabi, pickled ginger, sesame seeds, and sliced green onions according to your preference. Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.

Notes

  • Use freshly cooked or good quality microwavable jasmine rice for the best texture.
  • Adjust the amount of sriracha to control the heat level.
  • Imitation crab can be substituted with real crab meat if preferred for authenticity.
  • These bowls are best served fresh; leftovers can be refrigerated but the rice texture may change.
  • For a low-fat version, use light mayonnaise or a yogurt-based mayo alternative.
