Ingredients:

• 1 cup rice (Koshihikari or other short grain rice preferred)
• 1/4 cup rice vinegar
• 1/2 tbsp sugar
• 1 tsp salt
• 8 oz imitation crab (shredded and chopped)
• 1/2 cup cream cheese (room temp)
• 1/2 cup mayo (kewpie mayo preferred)
• 1/4 cup furikake
• 1/2 cucumber (sliced, to serve)
• 1 avocado (cubed, to serve)

Instruction:

1. Heat the oven to 425°F. Place the sushi rice in a colander, rinse throughly and let drain for 15 minutes. Cook rice according to the package instructions or your preference.

2. In a bowl, mix the shredded crab with the cream cheese and mayo until smooth. Set aside.
3. When the rice is done, transfer to a very large bowl. Sprinkle on the vinegar mixture and use a rice paddle or spatula to mix the vinegar into the rice while using a slicing motion. Fan the rice while mixing to dry it out slightly.
4. Spread the sushi rice into an oven safe baking dish and top with 1/2 of the furikake.
5. Top with the cream cheese mayo crab mix. Sprinkle on the remaining furikake.
