Spicy Salmon Sushi…In A Bowl!

My favorite easy way to satisfy a sushi craving at home! ♡

These salmon sushi bowls are quick, colorful, and full of all the vibrant flavors we love: tender bites of sesame-soy salmon, fluffy seasoned sushi rice, crisp cucumbers, creamy avocado, furikake (or seaweed snacks), and a generous drizzle of spicy mayo. Basically, all of the best parts of a spicy salmon roll, served bowl-style so you can pile on as many toppings as you’d like!

I love making these on weeknights because the salmon cooks so quickly in the air fryer and the rest of the bowl is easy to prep while the rice is steaming. (Or you can save a step and heat up packets of frozen pre-cooked rice!) The cucumbers get a quick toss with soy sauce and green onions, the spicy mayo comes together in about a minute, and then everyone can build their own bowl from there.

Feel free to keep things simple with just salmon, rice, cucumbers, and sauce, or have fun raiding your fridge for extra toppings. Pickled ginger, chili crisp, edamame, seaweed snacks, extra sriracha…there are so many ways to enjoy these bowls!
