Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Cauliflower rice
- 4 sheets Nori sheets
- 4 tablespoons Fish roe
- 1 medium Cucumber
- 1 large Avocado
- 1 medium Carrot
- 2 tablespoons Coconut aminos
- 1 tablespoon Rice vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
Begin by preparing the cauliflower rice. If using fresh cauliflower, roughly chop a small head into florets and pulse in a food processor until it resembles rice. Alternatively, use pre-prepared cauliflower rice.
Place the cauliflower rice in a microwave-safe bowl, cover, and microwave on high for about 3 minutes until just tender. Let it cool slightly.
Stir in 1 tablespoon of rice vinegar and 1 teaspoon of salt into the cauliflower rice to season it, adapting the taste to your preference.
Peel the cucumber and cut into thin strips, discarding seeds if necessary.
Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and slice thinly after peeling.
Peel the carrot and julienne it finely to create matchstick-like pieces.
On a clean workstation, lay out a bamboo sushi mat and place one nori sheet on top, shiny side down.
Spread a quarter of the cauliflower rice onto the nori sheet, leaving about an inch of space at the top edge of the nori.
Layer cucumber, avocado slices, carrot, and 1 tablespoon of fish roe evenly on top of the rice.
Using the sushi mat, carefully roll the nori over the filling, tightening it as you proceed to create a firm roll.
Seal the roll by lightly moistening the top edge of the nori with water to help it stick.
Repeat with the remaining nori sheets and fill the same way.
Use a sharp knife to slice the rolls into bite-sized pieces, wiping the blade with a damp cloth between cuts to ensure clean slices.
Serve the sushi rolls with a side of coconut aminos for dipping.
