Before starting, wash and dry all produce. Bring 1 1/4 cups water (dbl for 4 ppl) to a boil in a covered medium pot. While the water boils, roughly chop the cilantro. Thinly slice the cucumber into 1/4-inch rounds. Combine the mayo and sriracha in a small bowl and set aside.
Add the rice to the boiling water. Reduce heat to low. Cover and cook, until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed, 12-14 min.
Whisk together the vinegar, 1/4 cup water and 1/2 tbsp sugar (dbl both for 4ppl) in a medium bowl. Add the cucumber and carrots and toss to coat. Set aside in the fridge.
