Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 head cauliflower
- 2 oz cream cheese
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp rice vinegar
- 4 nori sheets
- 1 medium cucumber
- 1 small carrot
- 1 small avocado
- 8 oz sashimi-grade salmon
- 1 tsp wasabi paste
- 2 tbsp pickled ginger
Instructions
1. Cut the cauliflower into florets and place them in a food processor. Pulse until the cauliflower resembles rice-like granules.
2. Transfer the cauliflower rice to a microwave-safe bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and microwave on high for 4-5 minutes until tender. Allow it to cool slightly.
3. Stir in the cream cheese while the cauliflower rice is still warm, then add soy sauce and rice vinegar. Mix until thoroughly combined then place in the refrigerator to cool completely.
4. Peel the cucumber and cut it into thin, long strips. Do the same with the carrot, using a peeler for even strips. Slice the avocado in half, remove the pit, and thinly slice the avocado flesh.
5. Lay a sheet of nori, shiny side down, on a bamboo sushi mat. Spread a thin layer of the chilled cauliflower rice mixture over the nori, leaving about 1 inch of the nori sheet uncovered at the top edge.
6. Arrange slices of salmon, cucumber, carrot, and avocado horizontally across the row of rice closest to you.
7. Use the bamboo mat to help roll the sushi tightly away from you, pressing gently but firmly to shape. Moisten the top edge of the nori with water to seal.
8. Repeat the process with remaining nori sheets and filling ingredients.
9. Use a sharp knife to slice each roll into 8 pieces, wiping the blade with a damp cloth between cuts to keep it clean.
10. Serve the sushi rolls with a side of wasabi paste and pickled ginger. Enjoy your keto-friendly sushi!
