Step-by-Step Instructions for Sushi Cups
- In a medium pot, combine 1 cup of rinsed sushi rice with 1 ¼ cups of water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes until water is absorbed and rice is tender. Let sit covered for 10 minutes.
- Fluff cooked sushi rice with a fork and allow to cool slightly. Press rice firmly into cups of a greased muffin tin or silicone liners. Refrigerate for 20 minutes to chill and set.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine finely chopped veggies, steamed mukimame, and diced avocado. Add a splash of your sauce of choice and gently toss everything together until well incorporated.
- In a small bowl, whisk together 3 tablespoons of mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon of Sriracha, 1 teaspoon of honey, and 1 teaspoon of sesame oil until mixed well. Adjust heat to taste.
- Remove chilled rice cups from the refrigerator. Spoon veggie filling generously over each rice cup. Drizzle spicy mayo and sprinkle with black sesame seeds.
- Serve immediately as appetizers or snacks. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two days.
