Lay a seaweed sheet shiny side down on a bamboo mat.

Spread a thin layer of sushi rice evenly over the seaweed, leaving a border at the top.

Arrange slices of fresh salmon and avocado in a line across the center of the rice.

Using the bamboo mat, roll the sushi tightly away from you, pressing gently.

Seal the edge of the seaweed with a little water.

Slice the roll into bite-sized pieces with a sharp knife.

Serve with soy sauce.
