Spicy Shrimp and Mango Sushi Stacks
These sushi stacks have all the ingredients in a Spicy Shrimp Roll but in a fun, deconstructed way!
Ingredients
Ingredients:
Sushi Rice:
- 2 cups cooked short grain sushi rice
- 2 Tbsp. rice wine vinegar
- 1 Tbsp. Agave syrup or 1 Tbsp. sugar
Spicy Mayo:
- ¾ cup Kewpie mayonnaise or ¾ cup mayonnaise with ½ tsp. sugar
- 2 Tbsp. sriracha sauce use more or less depending on how spicy you want it
- 1 Tbsp. fresh lime juice
Spicy Shrimp:
- ½ lb. steamed shrimp diced
- 3 Tbsp. Spicy Mayonnaise
For Sushi Stack:
- 1 avocado diced
- 1 cup cucumber
- 2 tsp. lime juice
- 1 cup mango diced
Garnish (optional):
- 2-4 Tbsp. furikake
- 2 tsp. Tobiko flying fish roe
Instructions
Instructions:
- Cook the sushi rice according to package directions. (I use a rice cooker with one cup of sushi rice and 1 ½ cups water to make 2 cups of cooked rice.)
- Let cool slightly and fold in rice wine vinegar and honey. Set aside.
- Mix the Kewpie mayonnaise, sriracha and lime juice together. Set aside.
- In a medium bowl, mix the diced, steamed shrimp with 3 Tbsp. of the Spicy Mayo mixture.
- In two small bowls, toss the diced avocado with 1 tsp. lime juice and toss the diced cucumber with 1 tsp. lime juice.
Set up your Sushi Stack Station with your prepared ingredients:
- Use a 3” ring mold or 1 cup measure to build your stacks.
- *For the 1 cup measure you will build your stack upside down and then invert onto a plate.
- For the 3” ring mold: Set ring mold on the serving plate. Scoop ¼ cup of the sushi rice into the bottom of the mold, pat down gently. Top with ¼ cup avocado, ¼ cup mango, ¼ cup cucumber, and ¼ cup shrimp mixture.
- For the 1 cup measure: Lightly grease inside of the measuring cup. Scoop ¼ cup shrimp mixture into the bottom of the cup, pat down gently. Top with ¼ cup cucumber, ¼ cup mango, ¼ cup avocado, and ¼ cup sushi rice. Place the plate upside down on the measuring cup. Carefully flip both over and gently lift off the measuring cup.
- Carefully remove the ring and sprinkle with the garnish of your choice. I prefer a good sprinkle of furikake and an extra drizzle of Spicy Mayo. If I can find it, I love a small sprinkle of tobiko too!
- Serve with soy sauce and wasabi. Enjoy!
Notes
Use short grain, sticky rice. Long grain rice will not hold the “stack” shape.
Make sure shrimp is cool before mixing in the Spicy Mayo.
Use small Persian cucumbers or English cucumbers - they have thinner skins. If you use a regular cucumber, peel and remove the seeds.
Like heat? You can add more Sriracha to taste.
