Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 ounces Yellowtail (sushi-grade, thinly sliced)
- 1 cup Cauliflower rice (cooked and cooled)
- 1 whole Avocado (sliced)
- 4 pieces Nori sheets (full-sized)
- 1 small Cucumber (julienned)
- 2 tablespoons Mayonnaise (preferably sugar-free, keto-friendly)
- 1 teaspoon Sriracha (optional, for spice)
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce or tamari (for dipping, optional)
- 1 teaspoon Rice vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
1. Prepare the cauliflower rice by cooking fresh or frozen cauliflower rice in a dry skillet over medium heat until softened, about 5 minutes. Let it cool before stirring in the rice vinegar for flavor.
2. Lay a full nori sheet on a clean, dry surface or bamboo sushi mat, shiny side down.
3. Place 1/4 cup of the prepared cauliflower rice on the upper half of the nori sheet, spreading it out thinly but evenly.
4. Arrange 2 ounces of thinly sliced yellowtail, a few slices of avocado, and a few cucumber julienne strips diagonally across the rice.
5. In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise with the optional sriracha to create a spicy mayo, and drizzle a small amount onto your filling.
6. Starting from one corner of the nori sheet, carefully roll it into a cone or hand roll shape, sealing the edge with a dab of water if necessary.
7. Repeat this process with the remaining nori sheets and fillings.
8. Garnish each hand roll with a sprinkle of sesame seeds, if desired, and serve with soy sauce or tamari for dipping.
