Preparation Steps
  1. Begin by rinsing sushi rice thoroughly under cold water until the water runs clear. Cook in a rice cooker with the appropriate amount of water.
  2. Once the rice is cooked, drizzle seasoned rice vinegar over it and gently fold it in, then cool to room temperature.
  3. Season salmon fillet with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) and bake salmon for 15-20 minutes.
  4. Flake the cooked salmon into a bowl and mix with imitation crab, mayonnaise, cream cheese, sriracha, and soy sauce.
  5. Spread the cooled sushi rice in a baking dish, then layer furikake seasoning on top.
  6. Spread the salmon mixture evenly over the seasoned rice and broil for about 4 minutes until lightly browned.
  7. Drizzle spicy mayo over the top, sprinkle with green onions and sesame seeds. Serve warm with accompaniments.
