Ingredients

Scale

  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • 1 tsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • 1 tbsp sesame seeds
  • Salt & pepper to taste
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tbsp sriracha (adjust to spice preference)

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, mix salmon pieces with soy sauce, sesame oil, rice vinegar, salt, and pepper. Toss with cornstarch and sesame seeds.
  2. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and sear salmon until golden and cooked through, about 2–3 minutes per side. Set aside.

  4. Toss cucumber slices with a splash of rice vinegar and a pinch of salt.

Notes

  • Adjust the sriracha to control the spice level.
  • Use sushi-grade salmon if you prefer a raw preparation.
  • Furikake adds extra umami flavor, but it’s optional.
  • For extra texture, try adding pickled ginger or shredded carrots.
