Ingredients

• 200 g Cauliflower rice
• 60 g Cream cheese
• 2 sheets Nori seaweed sheets
• 100 g Smoked salmon
• 0.5 medium Cucumber
• 0.5 medium Avocado
• 1 tbsp Coconut aminos
• 1 tsp Sesame oil
• 20 g Almond flour
• 60 ml Oil for frying
• 0.5 medium Onion
• 1 pinch Salt
• 1 tbsp Rice vinegar

Directions

Step 1

Heat a dry skillet over medium heat and lightly toast the cauliflower rice for about 5 minutes to remove excess moisture. Once dry and fluffy, remove from heat and mix in the rice vinegar and a pinch of salt. Set aside to cool.

Step 2

Peel and thinly slice the onion. Toss the slices in almond flour until evenly coated.

Step 3

Heat the oil for frying in a shallow pan over medium heat. Fry the onion slices until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and let drain on a paper towel. Set aside.

Step 4

Slice the cucumber and avocado into thin strips, about 5 cm long, and set aside. Ensure the smoked salmon is also cut into thin strips if necessary.

Step 5

Lay a sheet of nori on a bamboo sushi mat, shiny side down. Spread half of the cooled cauliflower rice evenly over the nori, leaving about 2 cm at the top edge uncovered.

Step 6

Place a few strips of cucumber, avocado, and smoked salmon along the bottom edge of the rice. Add a small dollop of cream cheese for extra creaminess.

Step 7

Using the sushi mat, roll the nori tightly from the bottom edge upwards, pressing gently as you go. Seal the roll by moistening the exposed edge of the nori with a bit of water.

Step 8

Repeat the process with the second nori sheet to create a second roll.

Step 9

Slice each roll into 6-8 pieces using a sharp knife. Wipe the knife with a damp cloth between cuts to keep it clean.

Step 10

Drizzle the sliced rolls with sesame oil and a touch of coconut aminos. Garnish with the fried onions on top for added crunch and flavor.

Step 11

Serve immediately and enjoy your keto-friendly sushi rolls!
