Ingredients

Sushi Rice

2 cups short grain Japanese rice
2 cups water
¼ cup rice vinegar
2 tablespoons white sugar
1 teaspoon salt

Sauce

½ cup mayonnaise
¼ cup Sriracha sauce less if desired
2 teaspoons sugar

Additional Ingredients

One batch of crispy Shrimp (click to linked recipe)
2 tablespoons black sesame seeds toasted
½ English cucumber sliced
¾ cup roughly chopped matchstick carrots
1 nori sheet sliced or chopped into pieces (add more if you like)
1 large avocado diced

Instructions

Make sushi rice

Place rice in a fine mesh strainer, rinse under running water for 2 minutes or until water runs clear. Let drain well.
Add rice and water into the stainless steel insert and place in the instant pot. Close and lock lid, making sure that valve is in sealing position.
Pressure cook at high pressure for 3 minutes, then natural release for 10 minutes. Turn Venting Knob to Venting position to release the remaining pressure. Open the lid.
While the rice is cooking, prepare the sushi vinegar. Combine rice vinegar, sugar, and salt in a medium glass bowl. Microwave the mixture for about 30 seconds until it's hot, but be careful not to let it boil. Stir until the sugar is completely dissolved, then set it aside.
Transfer rice to a seperate glass bowl and drizzle the sushi vinegar evenly on top. Using a wooden spoon or a rubber spatula, gently fold the rice, using a cutting, lifting, and folding motion to incorporate it evenly.
Let cool slightly before proceeding.

Sauce

Stir together mayonnaise, sriracha sauce and sugar together in a small bowl, until sugar is dissolved.

Assemble

To assemble, divide cooked rice among 5 bowls (four if you are hungry), Top with shrimp, chopped avocado, sliced cucumber, carrot sticks, toasted sesame seeds and chopped nori.
