Step-by-Step Instructions
- Begin by rinsing 2 cups of sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Cook the rice in a pot or rice cooker using 2.5 cups of water. Let rest for 10 minutes once cooked.
- In a separate bowl, combine ¼ cup rice vinegar, 2 tablespoons sugar, and 1 teaspoon salt. Stir until dissolved, then gently fold into the cooled sushi rice.
- Spread the seasoned sushi rice evenly in the bottom of a greased 9x13 inch baking dish and let cool for about 5 minutes.
- In a mixing bowl, combine 1 pound diced fresh salmon, ½ cup mayonnaise, 2-4 tablespoons sriracha, 1 tablespoon sesame oil, and 2 tablespoons green onions. Mix until the salmon is coated.
- Spread the salmon mixture evenly over the layer of sushi rice in the baking dish, using a spatula for an even layer.
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake for 25-30 minutes until the salmon is cooked and the top is golden and bubbly.
- Remove from oven and let cool for 5 minutes. Garnish with green onions, nori, and tobiko if desired. Serve warm.

Notes
Pat the salmon dry before mixing to ensure better browning during baking. Allow rice to cool slightly before layering to maintain structure.
