Step-by-Step Instructions for Sushi Wonton Cones
  1. Prepare Wonton Cones: Preheat oil in a deep pan to around 175 °C (350 °F). Wrap wonton wrappers around a cream horn or cone mold, sealing edges securely.
  2. Heat Oil: Lower wrapped cones into hot oil with tongs. Fry for 2-3 minutes until golden brown, turning occasionally.
  3. Fry Cones: Remove cones with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Let cool while preparing filling.
  4. Cook Sushi Rice: Combine sushi rice with water in a saucepan. Cook until tender, then mix in vinegar, sugar, and salt.
  5. Prepare Tuna Mixture: Cube or flake sushi-grade tuna and mix with Kewpie mayo, tomato sauce, sriracha (if using), and lime zest. Adjust seasoning to taste.
  6. Assemble Cones: Fill wonton cones with sushi rice, slices of avocado, and the tuna mixture, avoiding overstuffing.
  7. Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle furikake or black sesame seeds on top. Serve upright in mini muffin tins or on a platter.
