Description

These Spicy Salmon Sushi Roll-Ups are an easy, no-fuss twist on sushi—no raw fish or special tools required! Made with cooked salmon, spicy sriracha mayo, crisp veggies, and wrapped in nori or tortillas, these roll-ups are bold, fresh, and perfect for lunch, snacks, or party platters. A quick, satisfying way to enjoy sushi flavors at home.


Ingredients

  • 1 to cups cooked sushi rice or plain white rice
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1 to 2 teaspoons sriracha (adjust to taste)
  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce (optional)
  • 1/4 cup cucumber, julienned
  • 1/4 cup carrot, shredded or julienned
  • 1/2 avocado, thinly sliced
  • 23 nori sheets or flour tortillas
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar (optional, for seasoning rice)
  • Sesame seeds (optional garnish)

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, mix flaked cooked salmon with mayonnaise, sriracha, and soy sauce until creamy and combined.

  2. If using sushi rice, season it with rice vinegar for a tangy flavor.

  3. Place a sheet of nori (shiny side down) or a tortilla on a flat surface.

  4. Spread a thin layer of rice evenly, leaving a border at the top.

  5. Layer spicy salmon, cucumber, carrot, and avocado over the rice.

  6. Roll up tightly from the bottom, sealing the edge with a dab of water.

  7. Slice into bite-sized pieces using a sharp, damp knife.

  8. Sprinkle with sesame seeds, if desired, and serve.


Notes

  • Use canned salmon or tuna for an even quicker prep.

  • Swap nori for rice paper, lettuce, or tortillas based on your preference.

  • Add cream cheese for extra richness or drizzle with sweet soy glaze for added flavor.

  • Keep filling and rice separate until rolling for best texture if prepping ahead.

  • Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 24 hours—best served fresh.
