Shrimp tempura rolls satisfied my sushi craving when I was pregnant with my daughter Madison. And while I still enjoy them occasionally these days, I don’t have them as often as I’d like to, because the shrimp are deep fried (and calorie heavy). That is, until now! Thanks to the air fryer, I’m able to get the same crispy texture for the shrimp without all the grease; and rather than making rolls, I simply pile all the sushi elements into a bowl for a quick and easy weeknight dish.

Instructions

Step 1

Preheat an air fryer to 400 degrees Fahrenheit

Step 2

For the spicy mayo: in a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, Sriracha, and 1 teaspoon water.

Step 3

For the Asian vinaigrette: in a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, sesame oil, vinegar, and ginger.

Step 4

For the shrimp tempura: Season the shrimp with the salt and pepper. In a shallow bowl, combine the egg white and milk. Place the Panko in a second shallow bowl.

Step 5

Dredge the shrimp first in the egg mixture, then in the Panko, shaking off any excess as you go.

Step 6

Place 8 of the shrimp in the air fryer basket. Spray the shrimp with oil. Cook for 5 minutes, until the shrimp turn pink and the coating is golden brown. Repeat with the remaining 8 shrimp.

Step 7

To assemble the bowls, divide the rice, cucumbers, and avocado, among 4 bowls. Top with 4 shrimp, then drizzle the vinaigrette and spicy mayo over each bowl. Garnish with the nori, black sesame seeds, and chives.
