  • Large pot
  • Frying pan

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon mirin
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • 1 tablespoon unseasoned rice vinegar
  • 1 cup cooked white rice or sushi rice, room temperature
  • For the sushi mixture:
  • ½ pound sushi-grade tuna cubed
  • 2 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
  • ½ teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon fresh minced ginger

  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon Furikake seasoning
  • 2 teaspoons salmon roe caviar
  • 1 large avocado halved, pitted and mashed
  • 2 tablespoons green onions sliced
  • ½ English cucumber diced

Instructions

  • Spritz both sides of a mini waffle maker with cooking spray. Heat it up, ready for the rice waffle creation.
  • Stir mirin and salt into the cooked white rice. Blend in unseasoned rice vinegar, ensuring the rice absorbs the delightful flavors.

  • Assemble the Sushi Waffles:
  • Begin with a lush layer of mashed avocado, setting the foundation for the sushi waffle.
  • Add a generous layer of the marinated sushi-grade tuna and salmon mixture, infusing the waffle with vibrant flavors.
  • Sprinkle sliced green onions and Furikake seasoning over the seafood layer, enhancing the taste and visual appeal.
  • Place diced cucumber and a teaspoon of salmon roe delicately on top.
  • Repeat the layering process to create the second sushi waffle. Now, savor the unique and delicious fusion of crispy rice waffle and vibrant sushi flavors!
