Description

Delicious and crispy Nori cups filled with salmon, avocado, and a hint of sriracha, perfect for a light meal or appetizer.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large nori sheets (seaweed, cut into 3-4” squares)
  • 2 cups cooked rice
  • 2 6-ounce cans cooked salmon or tuna
  • 1/4 cup mayo or plain Greek yogurt
  • 24 teaspoons sriracha
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce (tamari for a gluten-free version)
  • 1 teaspoon lime juice
  • 1/2 medium cucumber (finely chopped)
  • 1 medium avocado (chopped small)
  • sesame seeds (garnish)
  • chopped green onion (garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F.
  2. Cut the nori sheets into squares and press each one into a muffin tin cup to create “shells”.
  3. Fill each one with about 2 Tablespoons cooked rice, pressing to create a “cup”.
  4. In a bowl, mix the canned tuna with mayo (or yogurt), sriracha, sesame oil, soy sauce, and lime juice.
  5. Fill each cup and drizzle with extra sriracha if desired.
  6. Bake for about 10 minutes, or just until they’re warm and crisp.
  7. Top with cucumber, avocado, sesame seeds, and green onion.
  8. Drizzle with more lime juice and extra sauce if you want!

Notes

  • For a lighter option, substitute the mayo with Greek yogurt.
  • Ensure the nori sheets are fresh for best texture.
