Instructions

  1. Prepare sushi rice first. I like to use a rice cooker or InstantPot because it makes the job so easy, but you could also make it over the stove. See the following instructions:

  5. In a small bowl, whisk together the white wine vinegar, white sugar and salt until combined. When rice is cooked, fluff with a wooden spoon and stir in the seasoned vinegar.
  6. While rice is cooking, prepare your other toppings. Spiralize the carrots and zucchini, and slice your green onions. Thinly slice your fishes as well.
  7. To prepare sriracha mayo, combine mayonnaise and sriracha sauce in a small bowl and whisk until combined. You can adjust the amount of sriracha based on how spicy you like your food.
  8. To prepare glaze, combine ingredients in a small bowl and whisk until combined.
  9. For serving, add a heaping spoonful of sushi rice to each bowl. Top with spiralized vegetables, fish slices, green onions, sriracha mayo and glaze. Finish with black sesame seeds, if desired.
