Ingredients

• 200 grams salmon fillet
• 150 grams cauliflower rice
• 1 medium avocado
• 50 grams cream cheese
• 2 sheets nori sheets
• 0.5 medium cucumber
• 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
• 1 tablespoon soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon wasabi

Directions

Step 1

Begin by preparing the cauliflower rice. If using fresh cauliflower, cut into florets and pulse in a food processor until it reaches a rice-like consistency. If using pre-made cauliflower rice, ensure it's defrosted and drained of excess moisture.

Step 2

In a medium pan over medium heat, lightly toast the cauliflower rice for about 5-7 minutes until slightly golden. Add a pinch of salt and the rice vinegar, then stir to combine. Set aside to cool.

Step 3

Prepare the salmon by removing the skin if present, and slicing it into long, thin strips about 1cm in width. Ensure they are uniform to fit within the roll.

Step 4

Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, scoop out the flesh, and slice it into thin strips.

Step 5

Peel the cucumber if desired, and slice it into matchsticks roughly the same length as the avocado slices.

Step 6

Lay a sheet of nori, shiny side down, on a bamboo sushi mat covered with plastic wrap. Evenly spread half of the cream cheese over the nori, leaving a small border at the top edge.

Step 7

Spread half of the cooled cauliflower rice evenly over the cream cheese, gently pressing down to ensure it adheres to the nori.

Step 8

At one end of the nori sheet, lay down strips of salmon, cucumber sticks, and avocado slices in an even line to create the filling.

Step 9

Starting at the end with the filling, carefully lift the edge of the mat, tucking the ingredients over themselves and rolling tightly away from you. Apply light pressure to ensure a firm roll.

Step 10

Repeat the process with the second sheet of nori and remaining ingredients.

Step 11

With a sharp knife, slice each roll into 6-8 pieces. Clean the knife with a moist towel between cuts to achieve clean slices.

Step 12

Sprinkle the rolls with toasted sesame seeds for added flavor and texture.

Step 13

Serve the keto salmon rolls with soy sauce on the side and a dab of wasabi if desired.
