Creating the Spicy Salmon Rice Bowl is quite simple if you follow these steps:

1. Rinse the Rice: Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear. This helps remove excess starch.
2. Cook the Rice: In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed rice and water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes. Once cooked, remove from heat and let it sit covered for 10 minutes.
3. Prepare the Salmon: While the rice is cooking, season the salmon fillet with salt and pepper.
4. Cook the Salmon: Heat sesame oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the salmon, skin-side down, and cook for about 5-7 minutes. Flip the salmon and cook for an additional 3-5 minutes until it flakes easily with a fork.
5. Make the Sauce: In a small bowl, mix soy sauce, sriracha, and rice vinegar. Adjust the spice level by adding more sriracha if desired.
6. Assemble the Bowl: Fluff the cooked rice with a fork and divide it into serving bowls. Top with the cooked salmon, sliced avocado, diced cucumber, and julienned carrot.
7. Drizzle the Sauce: Drizzle the spicy sauce over the assembled bowls.
8. Garnish: Sprinkle sesame seeds and chopped green onions over the top. Add fresh cilantro for an extra burst of flavor.
9. Serve Immediately: Enjoy your Spicy Salmon Rice Bowl while it’s fresh and warm.
