Salmon Sushi Bake is a creamy, savory casserole version of a sushi roll, layered with seasoned rice, flaked salmon, cream cheese, mayo, and sriracha. Baked until golden and served with nori sheets, it’s a crowd-pleasing dish perfect for sushi lovers who want comfort food without the fuss.

Ingredients

  • 3 cups cooked sushi rice
  • 2 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 2 cups cooked salmon (baked, grilled, or canned, flaked)
  • 4 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise (preferably Kewpie)
  • 2 tbsp sriracha or chili sauce
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 green onions, chopped
  • 2 tbsp furikake seasoning (or crushed seaweed + sesame seeds)
  • Nori sheets or roasted seaweed snacks (for serving)
  • Optional toppings: diced avocado, cucumber, pickled ginger

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease or line a baking dish with parchment paper.
  2. Mix warm cooked sushi rice with rice vinegar, sugar, and salt. Press evenly into the bottom of the dish.
  3. In a bowl, combine flaked salmon, cream cheese, mayonnaise, sriracha, soy sauce, and half the chopped green onions.
  4. Spread the salmon mixture evenly over the rice. Sprinkle with furikake seasoning.
  5. Bake for 15–20 minutes until heated through and slightly golden on top.
  6. Cool slightly, then top with remaining green onions and optional toppings.
  7. Serve warm by scooping onto nori sheets or enjoy straight from the dish.

Notes

  • Canned salmon works—just drain and flake well before using.
  • Swap salmon with imitation crab, tuna, or shrimp for variety.
  • Make it spicier by adding more sriracha or drizzling spicy mayo after baking.
  • Try cauliflower rice for a low-carb version.
  • If you don’t have furikake, mix crushed seaweed with sesame seeds and a pinch of sugar or salt.
