Ingredients

• 2 Large cucumbers
• 1 Avocado
• 200 grams Salmon, fresh and sushi-grade
• 50 grams Cream cheese, softened
• 0.5 Red bell pepper, thinly sliced
• 1 Carrot, julienned
• 2 Nori sheets
• 2 tablespoons Soy sauce, for serving
• 1 tablespoon Toasted sesame seeds
• 1 teaspoon Wasabi (optional)
• 2 tablespoons Pickled ginger, for serving

Directions

Step 1

Begin by slicing the cucumbers lengthwise into thin, long strips. These strips will act as the outer wrapping for the sushi rolls. Try using a mandoline slicer to achieve uniform slices.

Step 2

Halve the avocado, remove the pit, and carefully scoop out the flesh. Slice the avocado into long, thin strips.

Step 3

Cut the sushi-grade salmon into thin strips, approximately the same length as the cucumber slices.

Step 4

Lay a piece of nori on a clean, dry surface. Place a slice of cucumber on top of the nori sheet.

Step 5

Spread a thin layer of cream cheese on the cucumber slice.

Step 6

Arrange some salmon, avocado, red bell pepper, and carrot in the center of the cucumber slice.

Step 7

Gently lift the nori sheet and cucumber slice starting from the bottom edge, and roll it tightly away from you to form a roll. Moisten the end of the nori with a bit of water so it sticks to itself.

Step 8

Repeat the process with the remaining ingredients to create more sushi rolls.

Step 9

Once all rolls are complete, use a sharp knife to slice each roll into 1-inch pieces.

Step 10

Sprinkle toasted sesame seeds over the sliced sushi pieces for added crunch.

Step 11

Serve the keto cucumber sushi rolls with soy sauce, wasabi, and pickled ginger on the side.
