Instructions
1
Press cooked sushi rice into a lined baking dish into an even layer, cover, and chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or overnight.
💡
Tip:Chilling helps the rice cakes hold their shape when frying.
2
Cut the chilled rice into small rectangles or squares.
💡
Tip:Use a wet knife to prevent sticking.
3
Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and pan-fry the rice squares until golden brown and crispy on both sides.
💡
Tip:Do not overcrowd the pan.
4
Finely dice the sashimi-grade tuna and mix it in a bowl with spicy mayo, sriracha, sesame oil, and soy sauce.
💡
Tip:Keep the tuna chilled until ready to assemble.
5
Top each crispy rice cake with a spoonful of the spicy tuna mixture and a thin slice of serrano pepper.
💡
Tip:Serve immediately.
