Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup shredded imitation crab meat with 3 tbsp mayonnaise until well mixed and creamy.
- Step 2: Lay 4 nori sheets on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Evenly spread 2 cups cooked sushi rice over the nori, pressing gently to cover each sheet.
- Step 3: Sprinkle 2 tbsp furikake seasoning evenly over the rice layers for added flavor and texture.
- Step 4: Dollop the crab and mayonnaise mixture evenly over each nori and rice layer, gently spreading it out.
- Step 5: Drizzle 1 tsp sesame oil over the top and place the tray in the oven. Bake for 12-15 minutes until the edges of the nori become crispy and the topping is warm and slightly golden.
- Step 6: Remove from the oven and cut each baked sushi sheet into 6 pieces using a sharp knife. Serve warm with 2 tbsp soy sauce for dipping.
