Ingredients

• 2 cups Cauliflower rice
• 2 large Eggs
• 0.25 cups Almond flour
• 0.25 cups Avocado oil (for frying)
• 1 5-ounce can Canned tuna (in water, drained)
• 2 tablespoons Mayonnaise (sugar-free)
• 1 tablespoon Sriracha (or keto-approved hot sauce)
• 1 teaspoon Soy sauce (or coconut aminos for keto-friendly option)
• 1 ripe Avocado
• 2 tablespoons Scallions (finely chopped)
• 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Place the cauliflower rice in a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth and squeeze out as much moisture as possible.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, combine the cauliflower rice, eggs, and almond flour. Mix well to form a cohesive mixture.

Step 3

Scoop about 2 tablespoons of the mixture and shape it into small rectangles (about 2 inches long) to mimic sushi rice shapes. Repeat with the remaining mixture.

Step 4

Heat avocado oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Once hot, gently place the cauliflower rice shapes in the pan, careful not to overcrowd them.

Step 5

Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.

Step 6

In a small bowl, combine the drained tuna, mayonnaise, sriracha, and soy sauce (or coconut aminos). Mix until well combined and set aside.

Step 7

Cut the ripe avocado into thin slices or mash it lightly, depending on your preference.

Step 8

Assemble the crispy rice bites by adding a small slice of avocado on top of each cauliflower rice base. Then, spoon a generous amount of the spicy tuna mixture on top.

Step 9

Garnish with chopped scallions and sesame seeds, if desired.

Step 10

Serve immediately and enjoy your keto-friendly Spicy Tuna Crispy Rice!
