Pan-fried rice makes a crispy base for this sensational take on a sushi-house fave.
450 g skinless salmon fillet
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup kosher salt
3/4 cup chopped dill
2 tsp seasoned rice vinegar
2 tsp granulated sugar
1 cup cooked sushi rice
1/3 cup panko bread crumbs
sriracha mayonnaise
sliced green onions
toasted sesame seeds
SLICE salmon into 1/8-in. slices. Line a large baking sheet with overhanging plastic wrap. Stir sugar with salt and dill in a bowl. Scatter half of sugar mixture on prepared sheet. Arrange salmon slices in 1 layer over sugar mixture. Completely cover salmon with remaining sugar mixture. Wrap fish with plastic wrap and refrigerate 1 hour.
TRANSFER salmon to a colander. Rinse slices under cold running water until sugar mixture is removed. Pat salmon dry with paper towel. Serve with thinly sliced rye bread and sour cream.
