Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear.
  2. Combine the rinsed rice with water in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Cover and reduce to low heat to simmer for 15 minutes.
  3. Let the rice sit covered for another 10 minutes.
  4. Mix rice vinegar, sugar, and salt in a small bowl until dissolved. Fold the mixture into the cooked rice and allow to cool.
  5. Press the cooled rice into a baking dish lined with parchment paper, cover with plastic, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  6. Preheat air fryer to 400°F (200°C). Cut the chilled rice into rectangular pieces and lightly oil both sides.
  7. Air-fry the rice for 12-15 minutes until golden brown, flipping halfway through.
  8. Combine diced mango, cucumber, red onion, lime juice, soy sauce, sesame oil, sesame seeds, and chili flakes in a bowl for the mango tartare.
  9. Blend mayonnaise, gochujang, lime juice, and honey/maple syrup for the gochujang mayo.
  10. Assemble by topping crispy rice with mango tartare, drizzling with gochujang mayo, and garnishing with sesame seeds, scallions, and nori.
