Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 sheets Nori sheets
- 200 grams Fresh salmon fillet
- 1 large Avocado
- 1 medium Cucumber
- 2 cups Cauliflower rice
- 1 tablespoon Rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Coconut aminos
- 1 teaspoon Toasted sesame oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Wasabi (optional)
Instructions
Begin by preparing the cauliflower rice. If you haven't purchased pre-riced cauliflower, grate a head of cauliflower to produce small, rice-sized pieces.
In a skillet over medium heat, add the cauliflower rice, rice vinegar, coconut aminos, sesame oil, and salt. Stir-fry for about 5 minutes until the cauliflower is tender.
Transfer the cooked cauliflower rice to a bowl and let it cool while you prepare other ingredients.
Slice the salmon fillet into thin strips, about 1/2 inch wide and 3 inches long. Ensure there are no bones or skin.
Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and peel the skin. Slice the avocado into thin strips.
Peel the cucumber and cut it into julienne strips, approximately the same length as the avocado slices.
To assemble the roll, lay a nori sheet, shiny side down, on a bamboo sushi mat or clean surface.
Spread a thin layer of the cooled cauliflower rice over the nori sheet, leaving about 1 inch at the top edge uncovered.
Place a few strips of salmon, avocado, and cucumber across the middle of the rice-covered nori sheet.
Carefully roll the nori sheet away from you, using light pressure and the bamboo mat to help keep the roll tight.
Seal the roll by moistening the uncovered edge of the nori with a little water and pressing to close.
Repeat the filling and rolling process with the remaining ingredients to create four rolls.
With a sharp knife, slice each roll into 6-8 pieces.
Serve immediately with optional wasabi on the side.
