Cook the Rice: Rinse the Rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Combine Rice and Water in a saucepan, bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let stand, covered, for 10 minutes.
Season the Rice: In a small bowl, whisk together Rice Vinegar, Sugar, and Salt. Gently fold the mixture into the cooked Rice. Let cool slightly.
Prepare the Spicy Mayo: In a small bowl, combine Mayonnaise and Sriracha. Adjust Sriracha to your desired spice level.
Form the Rice Bites: Lightly oil a 9x13 inch baking dish. Spread the seasoned Rice evenly into the dish and press down firmly. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up.
Cut and Fry: Cut the Rice into 1-inch squares. Heat Vegetable Oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the Rice squares in batches for 2-3 minutes per side, until golden brown and crispy.
Assemble: Top each crispy Rice square with Smoked Salmon, diced Avocado, and a drizzle of Spicy Mayo. Sprinkle with Everything Bagel Seasoning. Serve immediately.
