Equipment

Ingredients

  • 200 g raw salmon skinless
  • 1 tbsp kewpie mayo
  • salt & pepper to taste
  • 2 cups cooked short grain rice
  • 3.5 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 3 sheets of seaweed cut into 4x4 inch squares (optional: round corners so they resemble a taco shell!)

toppings:

  • ½ medium avocado
  • julienned cucumber
  • unagi sauce
  • spicy mayo
  • furikake

Instructions

  • Preheat the airfryer to 400°F. Pat the salmon dry and cut into tiny cubes. Put in a bowl and mix with kewpie mayo and a couple cracks of salt & pepper.
  • Combine rice vinegar, sugar and salt in a small bowl and mix until everything is dissolved. Pour over cooked rice and gently mix it together. Use a rice paddle to make cutting motions and gently fold to avoid mashing the rice.
  • Cut seaweed sheets into 4x4 inch squares by folding in half twice. Optional: fold each sheet in half and round the edges for a tortilla-like appearance.
  • Spread rice in a thin layer on each seaweed sheet. Slot them in the taco holder to prevent them from flopping shut.
  • Fill the shells to half capacity with the salmon mayo mix. Airfry for 7-9 minutes, until the salmon is cooked and the shells begin to crisp.
  • Top with avocado and cucumber slices. Drizzle on unagi sauce and spicy mayo, and finish with a sprinkle of furikake.
