Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Cauliflower rice
- 2 tablespoons Cream cheese
- 0.5 medium Mango
- 0.5 medium Cucumber
- 0.5 Avocado
- 2 Nori sheets
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)
- 1 tablespoon Rice vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds
Instructions
Begin by preparing the cauliflower rice. Steam the cauliflower rice in a microwave for 2-3 minutes until tender. Let it cool slightly and then stir in the rice vinegar and a pinch of salt. Set aside to allow the flavors to blend.
Cut the mango into thin strips after peeling. Repeat the process with the cucumber, ensuring to remove seeds if necessary, and do the same for the avocado.
Lay a nori sheet on a bamboo sushi mat, shiny side down. Gently spread half of the cream cheese across the nori sheet, leaving a 1-inch border at the top.
Place half of the cauliflower rice mixture across the middle of the nori sheet, and pat it down firmly using wet fingers or the back of a spoon to form an even layer.
Arrange some strips of mango, cucumber, and avocado across the center of the rice layer.
Using the bamboo mat, carefully lift the edge of the nori sheet closest to you and roll it over the filling tightly until the border is reached. Dampening the border slightly with water will help seal the roll.
Repeat the process with the second nori sheet and remaining ingredients.
Once rolled, use a sharp, damp knife to slice each roll into 6-8 pieces.
Serve with soy sauce or tamari for dipping, and sprinkle the sesame seeds over the top for garnish.
