Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 4 cups cooked medium-grain rice (preferably leftover)
  • 2 cooked salmon fillets (flaked)
  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • 2 scallions, thinly sliced
  • Kimchi (for serving)
  • Seaweed snacks (for serving)

Sauce Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • ¼ cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon sriracha
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Spicy Mayonnaise: In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, sriracha, and sesame oil until well combined, forming a creamy and spicy sauce.
  2. Combine Rice and Salmon: Divide the cooked rice and flaked salmon evenly among two bowls. Using a fork, gently mash the mixture to break the salmon into smaller pieces and evenly blend it with the rice.
  3. Add Soy Sauce and Mix: Drizzle the soy sauce over the rice and salmon mixture, then gently stir to combine all the flavors thoroughly.
  4. Incorporate Spicy Mayonnaise: Spoon the prepared spicy mayonnaise over the rice and salmon mixture, then gently fold it in to evenly coat the ingredients without mashing them too much.
  5. Top and Garnish: Arrange the sliced avocado and scallions on top of each bowl. Sprinkle toasted sesame seeds over the entire dish for a nutty crunch.
  6. Serve with Condiments: Present the bowls alongside kimchi and seaweed snacks to add contrasting textures and enhanced flavor complexity.

Notes

  • Use leftover rice for best texture and quicker preparation.
  • Salmon can be grilled, baked, or pan-cooked prior to assembling the bowl.
  • Adjust sriracha quantity to control the spiciness of the sauce.
  • For a gluten-free variation, use gluten-free soy sauce.
  • Kimchi and seaweed snacks are optional but add authentic Korean flavor and texture.
