Spicy Tuna Crispy Rice In The Air Fryer
  1. Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C).

  2. Mold seasoned rice into bite-sized rectangular shapes: Line a 12x9 rectangular baking tray or tupperwear with parchment or aluminum foil (whatever you use, just make sure it has a high lip to use as a mold). Press the cooled cooked rice into the base to create an even, dense layer and place in the freezer for 2+ hours or overnight. Once the rice is firm, remove from the freezer and cut into 2" by ½" rectangles.

  3. Lightly brush or spray oil on the rice rectangles.

  4. Cook in the air fryer for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and crispy (note: if you are cooking frozen rice cubes, double the cook time).

  5. In a bowl, combine diced tuna, soy sauce, toasted sesame oil, rice vinegar, mayo, and chili oil. Gently mix.

  6. Once the rice rectangles are crispy, let them cool slightly.

  7. Spoon a generous amount of the spicy tuna mix onto each rice base.

  8. Top with jalapenos, sesame seeds, and additional spicy mayo if desired.

  9. Serve as an appetizer or snack, and enjoy the flavors.
