Ingredients for Tuna Mayo Salad- 3 Tbsp Mayonnaise
- 1/2 can Tuna (drained)
- 4 Tbsp Corn Kernels (drained)
- Nori flakes or seaweed to taste
Spicy & Sweet Sauce- 4 Tbsp Soy Sauce
- 4 Tbsp Water
- 2 Tbsp Sugar
- 4 Tbsp Soy Sauce
- 4 Tbsp Water
- 2 Tbsp Sugar
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
In a bowl, combine half a can of well-drained tuna and 4 tablespoons of corn kernels with the water squeezed out. Add 3 tablespoons of mayonnaise and mix everything together until well combined. Ensure the tuna and corn are thoroughly mixed with the mayonnaise for a rich flavor.
Step 2
In a microwave-safe bowl, whisk together 4 tablespoons of soy sauce, 4 tablespoons of water, and 2 tablespoons of sugar. Microwave this sauce mixture in 1-minute intervals, for a total of 3 times (approximately 3 minutes), stirring in between each interval. This process helps the sugar dissolve completely and heats the sauce evenly, creating that signature spicy and sweet Shinjeon-style flavor.
Step 3
Prepare a bowl of warm cooked rice. Generously spoon the prepared tuna mayo salad mixture over the rice. Sprinkle with nori flakes or crumbled seaweed to add an extra layer of savory flavor and texture.
Step 4
Drizzle the warm spicy and sweet sauce over the cup rice according to your preference. For a visually appealing finish and enhanced taste, pipe or drizzle mayonnaise in a crisscross pattern over the top. Your delicious Tuna Mayo Cup Rice is now ready to be enjoyed! For an extra kick, consider adding some chopped chili peppers or a fried egg.
