Instructions

How to Make Spicy Tuna Avocado Rice Bowl

  • Rinse sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear to remove excess starch.
  • In a medium pot, combine rinsed rice and water. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce heat to low. Cook for 18 minutes until tender.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together rice vinegar, sugar, and salt until fully dissolved.
  • Remove rice from heat and let it sit covered for 10 minutes. This allows the rice to finish cooking and become fluffy.
  • Fluff the rice with a fork and gently mix in the vinegar mixture. Allow the rice to cool to room temperature.
  • In another mixing bowl, combine diced sushi-grade tuna, mayonnaise, and sriracha. Stir gently until the tuna is well-coated.
  • Spoon the cooled rice into a bowl. Top with the spicy tuna mixture, avocado slices, sesame seeds, and green onions.
  • Serve with soy sauce on the side for dipping and enjoy with loved ones!
