Description

A dazzling appetizer featuring crispy rice cakes topped with buttery, sushi-grade salmon and drizzled with tangy yuzu kosho sauce.


Ingredients

  • Sushi-grade salmon
  • Yuzu kosho (a spicy citrus paste)
  • Fresh yuzu juice
  • Seasoned sushi rice
  • Oil for frying
  • Salt and pepper to taste


Instructions

  1. Prepare seasoned sushi rice according to package instructions, then let it cool completely.
  2. Shape the cooled sushi rice into small rectangular cakes, about 1-inch thick.
  3. In a medium skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Fry the rice cakes until crispy and golden brown on both sides, roughly 3-4 minutes per side.
  4. Slice the sushi-grade salmon into thin pieces.
  5. Once the rice cakes are cooked, place a slice of salmon on top of each crispy rice cake.
  6. In a small bowl, mix yuzu kosho with fresh yuzu juice and drizzle it generously over the salmon.
  7. Season with salt and pepper to taste and serve immediately for the best texture and flavor!

Notes

For the best results, use sushi-grade salmon and ensure the oil is hot enough for frying.
