# Instructions:

01 - In a small mixing bowl, combine rice vinegar with sugar and salt. Stir until dissolved, then pour the mixture over the cooked sushi rice. Mix until well combined.
02 - Line a baking pan with plastic wrap, transfer the rice, and gently press it to create an even layer. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.

04 - Once chilled, cut the rice into 16 rectangles. Heat vegetable oil in a pan over medium heat, and fry the rice until both sides are golden and crispy. Remove and cool on paper towels.
05 - Top each crispy rice piece with sliced avocado, a tablespoon of the spicy salmon mixture, and a slice of jalapeño. Sprinkle with black and white sesame seeds. Serve immediately.
