Bring to a boil over high heat, then cover, reduce heat to low and cook until rice is tender, 18 to 20 minutes. Meanwhile, thinly slice the scallions and cucumbers. In a large bowl, stir together the scallions, tuna, mayonnaise, Sriracha, soy sauce and remaining 2 teaspoons rice vinegar. Taste and add more Sriracha for more heat. Refrigerate until the rice is ready (or up to 5 days). Sprinkle the cucumbers with a pinch of salt. Now crisp the rice: Make 4 or 5 small holes in the rice in the skillet, then pour the oil down the sides of the pan and into the divots. Increase heat to medium and cook until the rice is browned at the edges, 4 to 7 minutes. (You can lift the rice to check.) If you don’t see oil bubbling in the holes, add a teaspoon or two more oil. Divide the rice, crispy side up, among bowls or plates and serve with a scoop of the spicy tuna and the cucumbers.
