Baked Salmon Sushi Cups

Serves 4

Ingredients:

• 1 lb. (450g) salmon, skin removed
• 3 tbsp. spicy mayonnaise, plus more for garnish
• 2 tbsp. teriyaki sauce
• 3 large nori sheets
• 8 oz. (225g) cooked sushi rice
• sesame seeds, for garnish
• green onion, finely sliced, for garnish

What you need to do

1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Cut the salmon into small pieces and place into a medium bowl. Add the spicy mayonnaise and teriyaki sauce and stir until well combined. Cover the bowl and place the bowl into the refrigerator.
3. Cut the nori sheets into 12 large squares, approximately 3x3 inches (7.5x7.5cm) each. Set aside any extra pieces.
4. Spoon about 2 tablespoons of the cooked sushi rice onto each sheet of nori, leaving a ¼ inch border around the edges.
5. Place each nori sheet on top of a muffin tin compartment and use a spoon or your hands to press down the sheets to form a cup shape. Then add a spoonful of the salmon mixture into each rice-lined nori cup.
6. Place the muffin tray into the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes.
7. Remove from the oven and allow the cups to cool for about 15 minutes in the muffin tins to help them retain their shape.
8. Carefully remove each cup from the tin by lifting the corners of the seaweed.
9. Garnish with a drizzle of additional spicy mayonnaise, sesame seeds and green onion before serving.
