Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 medium head Cauliflower
- 4 ounces Cream cheese
- 4 sheets Nori sheets
- 8 ounces Salmon, sashimi-grade
- 1 cucumber Cucumber, julienned
- 1 avocado Avocado, sliced
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce or tamari
- 2 tablespoons Rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
Prepare the cauliflower rice by chopping the cauliflower into florets and pulsing them in a food processor until they resemble small, rice-like pieces.
In a non-stick pan over medium heat, sauté the cauliflower rice for about 8-10 minutes until it is tender and moisture has evaporated.
Transfer the cooked cauliflower rice to a medium bowl and mix in the cream cheese, rice vinegar, and salt until well combined. Let it cool to room temperature.
Place a nori sheet shiny-side down on a sushi mat or a clean kitchen towel lined with plastic wrap.
Spread a thin, even layer of the cauliflower rice mixture over the nori, leaving about 1 inch at the top edge of the nori sheet uncovered.
Arrange slices of salmon, cucumber, and avocado in a line along the bottom edge of the rice-covered nori.
Using the sushi mat, carefully roll the nori over the filling, pressing gently to form a tight roll. Seal the edge of the nori with a little water.
Using a sharp knife, slice the roll into 8 pieces. Repeat the process with the remaining ingredients.
Sprinkle sesame seeds over the sliced rolls before serving.
Serve with soy sauce or tamari for dipping.
