Salmon Sushi Waffles

Delightful waffles combining sushi flavors with the crispy comfort of waffles, packed with protein and omega-3s.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups sushi rice
  • 3.5 cups water
  • 1.5 pounds salmon
  • Soy sauce or kecap manis
  • Brown sugar
  • Rice wine vinegar
  • Sesame oil
  • 3 avocados
  • 1 lime
  • Sliced cucumber
  • Sriracha or other hot sauce
  • Japanese mayonnaise or sriracha mayo
  • Sesame seeds
  • Pickled ginger

Instructions

  1. In a large resealable plastic bag, combine the salmon with about 2 tablespoons each of soy sauce, brown sugar, and rice wine vinegar. Seal the bag and let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.
  2. Cook the sushi rice in a rice cooker or on the stove using the 3.5 cups of water. Once cooked, stir in a couple of splashes (about 2 tablespoons each) of rice wine vinegar and sesame oil.
  3. Preheat your broiler. Place the marinated salmon skin-side up on a foil-lined baking sheet and broil for 7-8 minutes until cooked through.
  4. Heat your waffle maker and grease it. Pack the cooked sushi rice into the waffle maker and cook for about 8 minutes until crispy.
  5. Mash the avocados with lime juice to create a paste. Slice cucumbers thinly.
  6. Spread a layer of avocado paste on the waffle, then top with cucumber slices and flaked salmon.
  7. Drizzle with hot sauce, soy sauce, or Japanese mayo, and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Serve with pickled ginger and a lime slice.
