Ingredients
 
 

  • 1 ½ cups cooked short grain rice or cooked medium or long grain rice
  • 5.29 oz canned tuna in oil recommended, or canned tuna in water
  • 2 tablespoon sriracha add more if needed
  • 2 tablespoon Japanese mayo or regular mayo, add more if needed
  • ¾ teaspoon regular soy sauce
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • cup Korean seasoned seaweed flakes or crushed nori/seaweed snack, add more if needed
  • ½ cup cucumber thinly sliced, or half an avocado sliced
  • 2 sheets nori optional, for enjoying with rice bowl

Instructions
 

  • Spread hot cooked rice into a large serving bowl. If you're using cold leftover cooked rice, microwave it covered for 2.5 minutes or until hot.
  • Season hot rice with soy sauce and sesame oil using a rice paddle. Cover to keep warm.
  • Strain canned tuna using a fine sieve to remove as much of the liquids as possible with a fork. Add half of the strained tuna on top of the rice or add all of it if you want more.
  • Place thinly sliced cucumbers on top of the tuna.
  • Generously squeeze as much sriracha sauce and kewpie mayo over top and add more if you wish.
  • Lastly sprinkle roasted seaweed flakes on top. Mix and enjoy as is or scoop some of the mixed rice into a small square of nori.
