Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 150 grams Fresh ahi tuna (sushi-grade), diced
- 1 whole Avocado, sliced
- 200 grams Cauliflower rice
- 3 sheets Nori sheets (seaweed)
- 50 grams Cream cheese, softened
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce (or coconut aminos for keto-friendly option)
- 1 tablespoon Rice vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds
- 1 small Cucumber, julienned
- 0.5 teaspoons Wasabi (optional)
Instructions
In a small skillet over medium heat, lightly sauté the cauliflower rice for 3-5 minutes until tender. Let it cool completely.
Once cooled, mix the cauliflower rice with rice vinegar and a pinch of salt for a tangy, sushi rice-like flavor.
Lay one sheet of nori, shiny side down, on a sushi mat or clean, flat surface.
Spread a thin layer of the cauliflower rice evenly over the nori, leaving about 2 cm of space at the top edge for sealing.
Spread a small amount of cream cheese in a horizontal line across the center of the cauliflower rice.
Layer a few slices of avocado, cucumber julienne strips, and diced tuna on top of the cream cheese.
Using the sushi mat (or your hands), carefully roll the nori away from you, keeping the ingredients tightly packed. Slightly moisten the top edge of the nori to seal the roll.
Repeat the process with the remaining nori sheets and ingredients.
Use a sharp knife to slice each roll into 6-8 pieces, cleaning the blade between cuts to maintain clean slices.
Arrange the sushi rolls on a plate, sprinkle with sesame seeds, and serve with soy sauce (or coconut aminos) and wasabi on the side.
