Preparation Steps
  1. Preheat oven to 175 °C (350 °F) and gather wonton wrappers. Wrap each around a cream horn mold, sealing the ends to form a shell.

  3. Rinse sushi rice under cold water until clear. Cook with 1.25 cups of water until tender, then mix in rice vinegar, sugar, and salt.
  4. Cube or flake sushi-grade tuna, mix with Kewpie mayonnaise, tomato ketchup, lime zest, and sriracha in a bowl.
  5. Layer sushi rice in each wonton cone, add avocado slices, then top with the tuna mixture.
  6. Garnish with furikake or black sesame seeds and serve upright for guests to enjoy.
