Crispy Rice Sushi Pizza with Salmon

Author: Flavelo
Recipes Vegetarian & Vegan Dishes Main Courses
A Canadian-Japanese invention, this dish plays with textures: the base is a crispy fried rice patty, topped with cool, creamy avocado and fresh fish. The Maillard reaction on the rice (the browned, crispy layer) adds a savory depth that standard sushi doesn't have.

Instructions

1 ✓

Cook the sushi rice and season with vinegar. Let it cool until lukewarm.

Tip: The starch (amylopectin) in the rice is what makes it stick together.
2 ✓

Shape the rice into a flat, round patty (like a pizza base).

Tip: Wet your hands to prevent sticking.
3 ✓

Fry the rice patty in a little oil until one side is golden brown and crispy.

Tip: This provides the structure and the crucial crunch.
4 ✓

Place rice on Nori sheet (optional). Top with sliced salmon and avocado.

Tip: Toppings should be cold for contrast.
5 ✓

Drizzle with wasabi mayo and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Slice into wedges.

Tip: Serve immediately before the rice gets soggy.

Recipe FAQ

Why does the rice fall apart when frying?
You didn't compress it enough or the rice wasn't sticky enough. Use Sushi rice and let it cool slightly before shaping.
