NOTES & TIPS

(1) White Rice. This amount refers to the cooked volume, not uncooked. I use medium-grain white rice. If you’re on a low carb diet, skip the rice without substitution, which will result in only 6 grams of net carbs per serving. I don’t recommend substituting with cauliflower rice because it won’t taste remotely close to sushi rice.
(2) Salmon. Fully drain the can, then fluff the meat with a fork. An alternative is to use the same weight of freshly cooked salmon; for cooking methods, see Pan Seared Salmon and Instant Pot Salmon. This can be substituted with imitation crab if you prefer a California roll sushi bowl.
(3) Sriracha. I use the brand Huy Fong. You can substitute with another chili garlic sauce or your favorite hot sauce.
(4) Serving. Serve sushi bowls immediately, alongside appetizers like chicken satay skewers and cucumber salad.

I made this for lunch yesterday and it was perfect! My husband and I love sushi and this bowl is an absolute delight! I used fresh salmon (marinated in lemon, garlic and chili and then pan fried for 5 min) instead of the tinned salmon. We loved the spicy dressing too! This will soon become a staple in our home! Thanks for the absolutely fantastic recipe!

I love everything about this except using sriracha in the dressing. This is sushi, you should use use wasabi! I just don’t care for sriracha.

Just so good!!! We live on a boat and often spend time away from easy access to fresh supplies. So I’m always on the lookout for canned fish recipes. And this is quite simply one of the best we’ve had. 100% evokes a spicy salmon sushi roll and even satisfied my sushi craving!! I almost always tweak a recipe, but not this one.
