Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Easy Sushi Bake Recipe
  1. Begin your Easy Sushi Bake Recipe by shredding the imitation crab over a mixing bowl. Combine the crab with softened cream cheese, creamy Kewpie mayo, and a squeeze of sriracha. Mix until well blended, ensuring that the ingredients create a smooth and cohesive filling.
  2. Take your cooked sushi rice and place it in a large mixing bowl. Gently fold in rice vinegar with a spatula, ensuring the hot rice absorbs the tangy flavor well.
  3. Spread the seasoned sushi rice evenly into a greased baking dish, using your hands or a spatula to flatten and press it down firmly.
  4. Sprinkle half of the furikake seasoning over the laid rice, then carefully spoon the crab mixture on top, making sure to cover the entire surface.
  5. Drizzle an additional layer of Kewpie mayo and sriracha over the top of the sushi bake. Spread it gently with a spatula for even coverage.
  6. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Place your assembled sushi bake into the oven and bake for approximately 25 minutes.
  7. Once baked, remove the Easy Sushi Bake from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Garnish with freshly chopped green onions.
