Shrimp Sushi Bundt Cake 😍 It is spicy, crunchy and sweet! A variation of the sushi bundt I shared last week. Super controversial by the way 😂 This is a variation of rosca de sushi, a dish very popular in Sonora & Sinaloa (Mexico). This is definitely not trying to be traditional sushi, and since it isn’t raw, technically not sushi either.

Growing up, Rosca de Sushi was extremely popular, and typically made with imitation crab, but this is what’s fun about it, you can play around with the ingredients and choose your toppings to your liking.

Cook your rice in a rice cooker the night before. Way better results in my opinion
