Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 head Cauliflower
- 1 large Avocado
- 200 grams Fresh crab meat
- 5 sheets Nori sheets
- 1 large Cucumber
- 1 medium Carrot
- 1 teaspoon Rice vinegar (compliant)
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
Break the cauliflower into florets and pulse in a food processor until it resembles rice.
Transfer the cauliflower rice into a bowl and stir in the rice vinegar and salt. Mix well to combine.
Slice the avocado in half, remove the pit, and carefully peel away the skin. Slice the avocado into thin strips.
Peel the cucumber and carrot, then julienne them into long, thin strips.
Lay a sheet of nori, shiny side down, on a bamboo sushi mat.
Spread a thin layer of cauliflower rice evenly over the nori sheet, leaving about 1 inch at the top edge clear for sealing.
Arrange some slices of avocado, crab meat, cucumber, and carrot strips along the bottom edge of the rice-covered surface.
Using the sushi mat, carefully roll the nori over the ingredients, tucking the filling under the first roll.
Continue rolling, using gentle pressure to keep the roll tight, until you reach the clean edge of the nori. Wet this edge with a little water to seal.
Repeat the process with the remaining ingredients to make additional rolls.
Use a sharp knife to slice each roll into 6-8 pieces.
Serve the sushi rolls immediately with additional avocado slices or a compliant dipping sauce if desired.
