Clean the avocado, cut it in half, remove the skin, and slice it. Line a baking dish with plastic wrap and cover the base with slices of smoked salmon.
Add the avocado slices and cover with rice, pressing it down to compact well.
If you need to serve it immediately, unmold the sushi cake by turning it upside down, add some sesame seeds on top, and cut it into cubes. If you need to serve it in a few hours, unmold and cut it just before serving at the table.
Advice:
The sushi cake can be stored for up to 24 hours in the refrigerator. You can customize it with the ingredients you prefer and accompany it with soy sauce, sushi mayonnaise, or other sauces to taste.
