Donut Sushi

This recipe was created in partnership with Unilever.

I like donuts. I like sushi. So here we go!

I would say my very favorite way to eat mayo is in a spicy mayo sauce on top of some sushi. Preferably on top of some unagi + unagi sauce because that’s the best. A close runner up for the best way to eat mayo is in mayonnaise chocolate cake, which sounds so weird but is actually totally fabulous. I mean, when you think of it, it totally makes sense because mayo is mainly just eggs, oil, vinegar…all the things you would put into a cake.

But today we’re not talking cake, we’re talking sushi. For this sushi recipe, I’m collaborating with
Hellmann’s® and their creamy, dreamy mayo, Hellmann’s® Real. Hellmann’s® is on the side of food as their mayo is made with real, quality ingredients like 100% cage free eggs and they have a commitment to source their oils responsibly.

All I did here was take Hellmann’s® Real and make it into a delish spicy mayo sauce by just, umm, adding something spicy to it. SO SIMPLE! Then I used the sauce to top a sushi donut (aka rice molded into a donut shape and topped with fresh veggies & salmon). I think this here donut sushi would make for a fun interactive dinner night. Just make your rice donuts ahead of time and then put out a bunch of toppings for people to top the “donuts” with. It’d be like a new themed dinner night.

Instead of taco night, it’s donut sushi night. Woohoo.

Okay: Quick note about the rice donut. You want to make the rice creamy & sticky, so when making
your rice I do recommend using light coconut milk like the recipe calls for over water or chicken broth. Okay. End note.

Hellmann’s® has a delicious, rich taste and can be used on all types of vegetables, grains and proteins. Besides sushi, this spicy mayo sauce would also go great drizzled on a veggie stir-fry, spread on a sandwich, or baked on chicken like this.

Enjoy!
