Much easier than rolled sushi!

1 cup sushi rice
1/4 cup seasoned rice vinegar
2 tablespoons sesame seeds, toasted
Half avocado, thinly sliced
Half sheet roasted nori
3/4 cup flaked imitation crabmeat (surimi) or thinly sliced smoked salmon
1/2 cup very thinly sliced English cucumber
2 tablespoon pickled ginger
2 tablespoons light mayonnaise
2 tablespoons milk
1 tablespoon wasabi powder

In saucepan, combine rice and 1 1/4 cups (300 mL) water; bring to boil. Cover and reduce heat to low; cook for 25 minutes or until rice is tender. With fork, stir in rice vinegar and sesame seeds.

Meanwhile, line 8-inch ( 1.2L ) round or 8-inch square cake pan with plastic wrap. With spatula, press rice firmly and evenly into pan. Let cool completely. Turn out onto flat serving plate.

Top with layer of avocado slices. Using scissors, cut nori into thin strips; sprinkle over avocado.

Arrange crabmeat, cucumber and ginger over top.

Stir together mayonnaise, milk and wasabi powder; drizzle over top.

Cut into wedges to serve.

My changes:
I used soymilk instead of milk (because there's fish)
I added more mayo for myself & DD so that not as strong.
I did less than double the recipe & made 2 round pans & one loaf pan.
After I did the round pans for supper, DH suggested I place the nori as a base under the rice. I did that for the loaf pan (his lunch for tomorrow). I think it'll be easier for him to eat.
I put thinly sliced raw salmon for DH & DD since they like it instead of (or with) the fake crab.

I took photos. I'll try to put them up here tomorrow.
