Method
 

Preparation
  1. Start by cutting your fresh salmon fillets into bite-sized pieces. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  2. Place the cornstarch in a bowl and dredge the salmon pieces until they are evenly coated.
Cooking
  1. In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat.
  2. Carefully add the salmon pieces to the hot oil, frying in batches if necessary. Cook until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side.
Sauce Preparation
  1. In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, and sriracha. Adjust the spice levels according to your preference.
Assembly
  1. In each bowl, serve a base of rice if using. Top with crispy salmon bites and add veggies like cucumber, carrots, green onions, and cilantro.
  2. Generously drizzle your Bang Bang sauce over the assembled bowls, and serve immediately.

Notes

For the crispiest salmon, ensure the oil is hot enough. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two days. Reheat in the oven for best results.
