Step-by-Step Instructions for Sushi Bake
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease your baking dish lightly with cooking spray.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese, imitation crab, Kewpie mayo, and sriracha. Blend until creamy and well-incorporated.
  3. In another bowl, add rice vinegar to the cooked sushi rice and gently fold in furikake, maintaining the fluffy texture.
  4. Spread seasoned sushi rice evenly across the bottom of the prepared baking dish, and top with additional furikake.
  5. Top with the creamy crab mixture, spreading it out evenly.
  6. Drizzle with Kewpie mayo and sriracha, sprinkle with more furikake as toppings.
  7. Bake for about 15-20 minutes until edges are golden and filling is bubbling. Optionally broil for 2-3 minutes for a crispy top.
  8. Let the Sushi Bake rest for about 5 minutes before garnishing with sliced green onions and serving.
