Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 head Cauliflower
- 4 tablespoons Cream Cheese
- 4 sheets Nori Sheets
- 8 ounces Salmon, fresh and sushi-grade
- 1 large Avocado
- 1 small Cucumber
- 1 tablespoon Rice Vinegar
- 0.25 cup Soy Sauce, low sodium or Tamari
- 2 tablespoons Sesame Seeds
- 1 teaspoon Wasabi
- 2 tablespoons Pickled Ginger
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
Begin by preparing the cauliflower rice. Break the cauliflower into florets and pulse them in a food processor until they resemble rice grains.
In a large skillet over medium heat, add the cauliflower rice with a pinch of salt and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally until warm and softened.
Remove the cauliflower rice from heat and mix in the cream cheese and rice vinegar. Let it cool completely.
Lay out a bamboo sushi mat and place a sheet of Nori on top. Spread a thin and even layer of the cauliflower rice over the Nori sheet, leaving about 1 inch at the top edge uncovered.
Slice the salmon and avocado into thin strips. Cut cucumber into matchstick pieces.
Place a few strips of salmon, avocado, and cucumber along the bottom edge of the cauliflower rice layer.
Using the sushi mat, carefully roll the Nori over the filling, pressing gently yet firmly until you reach the uncovered end. Moisten the edge with a little water to seal the roll.
Repeat the process with the remaining ingredients to make four rolls.
Once all rolls are made, slice each roll into bite-size pieces using a sharp, moistened knife.
Sprinkle sesame seeds over each piece for garnish.
Serve your Keto Salmon Avocado Sushi Rolls with soy sauce, wasabi, and pickled ginger on the side.
