Main Ingredients- 1 packet of store-bought Inari sushi kit (includes seasoned fried tofu pouches, sushi vinegar, sesame seeds)
- 1 can of tuna (drained)
- 10g bell pepper (finely diced)
- 2 bowls of cooked rice (approx. 400g)
Tuna Mayo Sauce- 4 tablespoons mayonnaise (adjust to taste)
- 4 tablespoons mayonnaise (adjust to taste)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, gather all your ingredients: the contents of the Inari sushi kit (tofu pouches, sushi vinegar, sesame seeds), 2 bowls of cooked rice, 1 can of drained tuna, and 4 tablespoons of mayonnaise. Finely dice the bell pepper. Having everything ready will make the cooking process much smoother.
Step 2
Now, let’s make the tuna mayo filling. In a bowl, combine the drained tuna, finely diced bell pepper, and 4 tablespoons of mayonnaise. Mix well until everything is evenly coated. The bell pepper adds a touch of color and a slight crunch. Taste and add a pinch of salt or pepper if needed.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, combine the sushi vinegar and sesame seeds from the kit with the 2 bowls of warm cooked rice. Gently mix with a spatula or spoon, being careful not to mash the rice grains. This seasons the sushi rice. It’s important that the rice is warm, not too hot or cold. Fill each tofu pouch with the seasoned rice, about two-thirds full. This leaves enough space for the tuna mayo topping.
Step 4
Carefully spoon the seasoned rice into each prepared Inari tofu pouch. Avoid overfilling, as it might cause the pouch to open. Once the rice is in place, generously top with the tuna and bell pepper mixture you prepared earlier. Gently spread it using the back of a spoon for a neat presentation.
Step 5
Voila! Your delicious tuna mayo Inari sushi is ready. Doesn’t the generous topping of tuna mayo look appetizing? The savory tuna, creamy mayonnaise, and fresh bell pepper create a delightful flavor combination that everyone will enjoy.
Step 6
Enjoy this simple yet nutritious tuna mayo Inari sushi for a healthy and tasty breakfast. With no complicated cooking steps, it can be prepared in just 10-15 minutes, making it perfect for busy mornings or as a snack for kids. Enjoy your homemade creation!
