Jump to recipeA base of fragrant rice is topped with refreshing cucumber, creamy edamame, some umami rich seaweed, tuna and a creamy sriracha sauce. This recipe is pretty flexible though, it's great with avocado instead of the edamame beans, or even some grated carrot! If you don't want to add tuna, then it'll be delicious with tofu, chicken or salmon. It’s topped with a creamy sriracha yoghurt sauce, but you can also drizzle on chilli sauce and a bit of Kewpie mayo instead if you prefer!
