Ingredients

Sushi Rice:

• 3 cups of cooked sushi rice, short-grain white rice
• ⅓ cup of unseasoned rice vinegar
• 3 tablespoons of granulated sugar
• 1 ½ teaspoon salt

Toppings:

• 4–5 large oyster mushrooms, cut into cubes
• 2 teaspoons – of vegetable oil
• 1 tablespoon – of soy sauce
• ½ teaspoon – of onion powder
• ½ teaspoon – of garlic powder
• Salt and black pepper to taste
• ¾ cup – of vegan mayonnaise
• 2 teaspoons – of unseasoned rice vinegar
• 2 teaspoon – agave
• ¼ cup – vegan cream cheese, softened at room temp I used Kite Hill
• 1–2 tablespoons – sriracha, adjust to spice preference
• Furikake
• Seaweed snacks or nori

Equipment:

• 9x13 casserole dish
• Rice cooker
• Large pan
• 2 large mixing bowls
• Spatula

Instructions

Sushi rice:

1. Cook rice according to package directions.
2. Meanwhile, combine the unseasoned rice vinegar, granulated sugar, and salt in a small bowl. Microwave it for about 15-20 seconds (yes, it will smell). Stir until the sugar and salt are completely dissolved.
3. When the rice is done, transfer it to a large mixing bowl. Pour the vinegar mixture over the rice and fold until evenly coated. Allow cooling completely.

Toppings:

1. In a large pan over medium heat, heat the oil. Season with onion and garlic powder and add the cubed mushrooms and soy sauce to the pan. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
2. Cook the mushrooms until they are slightly softened. Cooking it for too long will cause it to release water and shrink in size. Remove from the heat and keep warm until ready to use.
3. To begin, combine the vegan mayonnaise, rice vinegar, and sugar in a large mixing bowl. Mix until everything is well combined. Then, continue to mix in the vegan cream cheese and sriracha. From here, taste and adjust the amount of sriracha to your liking.
4. Add the cooked mushrooms to the bowl and coat with the mayo and cream cheese mixture.

Assembly:

1. Transfer the sushi rice to the baking dish once it has completely cooled. Spread it evenly in the dish, making sure to lightly pack it down.
2. Then, evenly distribute furikake over the top of the rice.
3. Then spread the mushroom mixture evenly across the top. Sprinkle with a little more furikake on top.
4. Finally, position one of the oven racks to the top. Then, preheat the oven to broil. Place your baking sheet carefully on the rack and bake for 3-5 minutes. Alternatively, heat until bubbly. This will be a quick procedure, so pay close attention. We don’t want it to catch fire!
5. Scoop it into nori sheets to serve. Enjoy!

Notes

• If you’re not a fan of mushrooms, you can sub for tofu!
• You can also sub cream cheese for sour cream, however, the flavor might be different.
• Feel free to customize the toppings with what you have on hand.
