Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Prepare the oven by preheating it to 175 °C (350 °F). Wrap each wonton wrapper around a cream horn mold tightly and brush with coconut oil.
  2. Heat coconut oil in a deep skillet to 175 °C (350 °F). Fry the wrapped cones for 2-3 minutes until golden brown and crisp. Drain on paper towels.
  3. Cook sushi rice according to package instructions, usually about 15-20 minutes. Mix warm rice with rice vinegar, sugar, and salt, and let it cool.
  4. Cut sushi-grade tuna into cubes or flakes. Mix with Kewpie mayonnaise, tomato sauce, sriracha (if using), and lime zest. Chill the mixture.
  5. Fill the cooled wonton cones with sushi rice, avocado slices, and a scoop of the tuna mixture. Avoid overfilling.
  6. Garnish with furikake or black sesame seeds and serve.
