Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Cauliflower rice
- 4 tablespoons Cream cheese
- 1 tablespoon Rice vinegar
- 2 sheets Seaweed nori sheets
- 1 small Cucumber
- 1 medium Avocado
- 6 pieces Cooked shrimp
- 2 tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Sriracha sauce
- 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds
- 1 tablespoon Soy sauce or tamari (for serving)
Instructions
Prepare the cauliflower rice by microwaving it for 3-4 minutes or until tender. Allow it to cool slightly, then mix in the cream cheese and rice vinegar to create a sticky rice-like texture.
Lay a nori sheet shiny side down on a sushi mat or a piece of parchment paper.
Spread half of the cauliflower rice mixture evenly over the nori sheet, leaving a 1-inch border at the top edge.
Peel and julienne the cucumber, and slice the avocado into thin strips. Place a few pieces of cucumber and avocado in a horizontal row across the center of the rice.
Add three cooked shrimp in a line alongside the cucumber and avocado.
Carefully roll the nori sheet tightly from the bottom edge, using gentle but firm pressure to create a cylindrical shape. Seal the roll by moistening the top border of the nori with a little water.
Repeat these steps with the second nori sheet and the remaining ingredients to make another roll.
In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise with sriracha to create a spicy mayo sauce.
Drizzle the spicy mayo over the top of the rolls, then sprinkle with sesame seeds.
Using a sharp knife, slice each roll into 6 even pieces. Serve with soy sauce or tamari for dipping.
