# Directions:
01 - Rinse sushi rice under cold water until water runs clear. Combine rice and water in a pot, bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let stand covered for 10 minutes. In a small bowl, mix rice vinegar, sugar, and salt, then fold gently into hot rice. Allow to cool to room temperature.
02 - Toss shrimp with soy sauce, sriracha, and sesame oil. Sauté shrimp in a skillet over medium-high heat for 2 to 3 minutes per side until cooked through. Let cool slightly, then chop into small pieces.
03 - Whisk together mayonnaise, sriracha, and lime juice in a small bowl until combined.
04 - Using a food ring mold or ramekin, layer 1/4 cup seasoned rice firmly, followed by a layer of diced cucumber, then diced avocado, and finally the spicy shrimp. Drizzle with spicy mayo and top with chopped nori, green onions, and sesame seeds. Gently lift off the mold or invert the ramekin to create a layered tower.
05 - Repeat the stacking process with remaining ingredients to prepare four servings. Serve immediately.
