Peel and devein the shrimp, leaving the tails on.
Bring a pot of water to boil. Add the shrimp and cook for 2-3 minutes or until they turn pink and opaque. Remove from heat and submerge in ice-cold water to stop the cooking process. Drain and set aside.
In a medium saucepan, add the cauliflower rice and cook over medium heat for about 5 minutes or until it becomes tender. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
Remove the cauliflower rice from the heat and place it in a large bowl. Add the rice vinegar, erythritol, and sea salt. Mix until the cauliflower rice is evenly coated with the vinegar mixture.
Cut the nori sheets in half lengthwise. You will now have 4 strips.
Shape the cauliflower rice into small logs that match the width of the nori strips, about the size of your thumb.
Press the rice logs gently onto each nori strip and place a cooked shrimp on top, pressing slightly so that it adheres to the rice.
Serve the Keto Ebi Sushi with wasabi paste, soy sauce, and pickled ginger on the side.
