Ingredients

  • 2 cups sushi rice (cooked)
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • ½ tablespoon sugar
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 4 ounces sashimi-grade salmon, sliced
  • 4 ounces sashimi-grade tuna, sliced
  • 4 ounces cooked shrimp, halved lengthwise
  • 2 ounces imitation crab stick, julienned
  • 2 whole large eggs
  • ½ whole cucumber, julienned
  • ½ whole avocado, sliced
  • ¼ whole carrot, julienned
  • 1 sheet nori (seaweed sheets), sliced into strips
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon mirin
  • ½ teaspoon wasabi
  • 1 tablespoon pickled ginger
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds (white)
  • 1 tablespoon green onion, thinly sliced

Instructions

  1. 1

    While rice is still warm, combine rice vinegar, sugar, and salt. Gently fold the vinegar mixture into the cooked rice until evenly distributed. Set aside to cool to room temperature.

  2. 2

    Heat a small non-stick skillet over medium-low heat. Crack one egg into the pan and cook sunny-side up until the white is set but yolk remains runny, about 3-4 minutes. Repeat with second egg. Season lightly with salt.

  3. 3

    Julienne the cucumber, carrot, and slice the avocado. Arrange all seafood and vegetable toppings on a cutting board for easy assembly.

  4. 4

    Divide the seasoned sushi rice between two bowls, forming an even base.

  5. 5

    Arrange salmon, tuna, shrimp, and crab stick artfully on top of the rice in separate sections.

  6. 6

    Place a fried egg in the center of each bowl. Arrange cucumber, carrot, and avocado strips around the bowl.

  7. 7

    Top with nori strips, sesame seeds, pickled ginger, and green onion.

  8. 8

    Mix soy sauce with mirin and serve alongside wasabi in small dishes for dipping. Drizzle sauce over bowl or dip each bite as desired.
