Spicy Tuna Sushi Burger

Spicy Tuna Sushi Burger

Imagine the elegance of traditional sushi transformed into the fun and hearty form of a hamburger. Also known as a Tuna Onigirazu, the Sushi Burger features layers of seasoned sushi rice, tuna, crisp cucumber, and creamy avocado, all beautifully stacked between nori sheets that serve as the "buns."

You can tailor it to your preferences, adding your favorite seafood, experimenting with different vegetables, or even incorporating a spicy kick. It's a fun and interactive dish to prepare with family or friends, and perhaps even less fuss to prepare than individual rolls of sushi.
