Baked Lava Roll Ingredients
Method
Preparation Directions
Prepare Sushi Rice
Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Combine the rinsed rice and water in a rice cooker or pot. Cook according to rice cooker instructions or bring to a boil, then cover and simmer for 18-20 minutes. Once cooked, let it sit for 10 minutes, then fluff with a fork.
Season Rice
In a small bowl, mix rice vinegar, sugar, and salt until dissolved. Gently fold this mixture into the warm sushi rice and let it cool.
Prepare Spicy Crab Salad
In a bowl, combine the imitation crab meat, sriracha, and mayonnaise. Mix well to create the spicy crab salad.
Assemble the Roll
On a bamboo sushi mat, spread a layer of sushi rice evenly. Place slices of avocado and a layer of jumbo lump crab meat on top. Roll tightly using the mat, then transfer to a baking dish.
Top with Spicy Crab Salad
Spread the spicy crab salad evenly over the top of the rolled sushi.
Bake the Roll
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake the assembled roll for about 10-15 minutes, or until the topping is heated through and slightly golden.
Garnish and Serve
Remove from the oven and drizzle with spicy mayo and sushi sauce. Sprinkle tempura crunch and sliced green onions on top before serving.
