  2. Heat avocado oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Press chilled sushi rice into the skillet and fry for 3-5 minutes until crispy and golden brown. Flip to crisp the other side for an additional 3-5 minutes.
  3. Remove crispy rice from the skillet and place in serving bowls. Top with spicy tuna mixture, sliced mini cucumber, and sprinkle with scallions for freshness.
