Instructions
To make the spicy mayonnaise

To make the sushi bowl
- Place the sushi rice, water, and rice vinegar in a pot over medium-low heat, partially cover, and bring to a boil.
- Lower the heat and simmer for 20 to 25 minutes until the rice is soft, but not mushy. Fluff with a wooden spoon.
- Divide the nori strips among 4 bowls, crisscrossing them.
- Divide the cooked rice among the bowls, as well as the cucumber, daikon radish, mango, avocado, and edamame.
- Combine the panko bread crumbs and sesame seeds in a small bowl and then sprinkle the crunchies over each bowl. Finish each bowl with a drizzle of spicy mayo. Serve immediately.
