Begin by preparing the cauliflower rice. Break the cauliflower into florets and process them in a food processor until it resembles rice.
Transfer the cauliflower rice to a microwave-safe dish and cover. Microwave on high for 5 minutes. Let it cool slightly.
Once cooled, place the cauliflower rice in a clean cloth or cheesecloth and squeeze out any excess moisture. This helps maintain the texture of the sushi.
In a mixing bowl, combine the cauliflower rice, cream cheese, and rice vinegar. Stir thoroughly until the mixture is well-combined and creamy.
Slice the cucumber and avocado into thin strips, and set them aside for later use.
Lay a nori sheet on a bamboo sushi mat, shiny side down. Spread a thin even layer of the cauliflower rice mixture over the nori, leaving about 1 inch at the top free from rice.
Arrange a line of prawns, cucumber strips, and avocado slices across the center of the rice-covered nori sheet.
Using the sushi mat, carefully roll the nori over the filling, applying gentle pressure to keep the roll tight. Seal the roll by moistening the edge of the nori with a little water.
Sprinkle sesame seeds over the top of the roll. Use a sharp knife to slice the roll into 6 to 8 pieces.
Repeat the process with the remaining nori sheets and fillings.
Serve the Keto Prawn Sushi with soy sauce, if desired.
