Ingredients

• 2 cups Cauliflower rice
• 1 tablespoon Rice vinegar
• 1 teaspoon Erythritol sweetener
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 8 ounces Fresh salmon fillet
• 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon Avocado oil
• 2 tablespoons Mayonnaise
• 1 teaspoon Sriracha sauce
• 0.5 teaspoon Lemon juice
• 0.5 teaspoon Ginger, grated
• 2 sheets Nori sheets
• 2 tablespoons Green onions, finely chopped
• 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds, toasted

Directions

Step 1

Start by preparing the cauliflower rice: In a large bowl, combine the cauliflower rice, rice vinegar, erythritol, and salt. Mix well until the cauliflower rice is well-flavored and set aside.

Step 2

Next, slice the fresh salmon fillet into thin strips, about 1/4 inch thick, and set them aside.

Step 3

In a small bowl, mix the soy sauce, avocado oil, mayonnaise, sriracha, lemon juice, and grated ginger to create a spicy mayo sauce.

Step 4

Lay out the nori sheets on a flat surface and evenly spread the seasoned cauliflower rice over each sheet, leaving a small border on the edge.

Step 5

Arrange the sliced salmon strips across the cauliflower rice on each nori sheet.

Step 6

Using a small kitchen torch, carefully sear the salmon strips until they are slightly charred on the surface. This technique gives the salmon that delicious 'aburi' flavor.

Step 7

Drizzle the spicy mayo sauce over the charred salmon strips.

Step 8

Sprinkle finely chopped green onions and toasted sesame seeds on top for extra flavor and garnish.

Step 9

Carefully roll each nori sheet into a tight sushi roll, using a bamboo mat if necessary for a secure roll.

Step 10

Slice the roll into bite-sized pieces and serve immediately. Enjoy your Keto Aburi Salmon Sushi!
