• 2 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 medium Cucumber, julienned
• 0.25 medium Red onion, thinly sliced
• 8 Cherry tomatoes, halved
• 1 tablespoon Fresh dill, chopped
• 4 Nori sheets
• 2 cups Brown rice, cooked
• 4 tablespoons Hummus
• 100 grams Crumbled feta cheese

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 200°C (390°F).

Step 2

Place the salmon fillet on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.

Step 3

Drizzle 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of lemon juice over the salmon.

Step 4

Sprinkle the minced garlic, salt, and black pepper over the top of the salmon.

Step 5

Bake the salmon in the preheated oven for about 10 minutes, or until it is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

Step 6

Once cooked, remove from the oven and let it rest until cool enough to handle.

Step 7

While the salmon cools, prepare the vegetables by julienning the cucumber, slicing the red onion, and halving the cherry tomatoes.

Step 8

Gently flake the cooled salmon into bite-sized pieces.

Step 9

To assemble the handrolls, lay a sheet of nori on a flat surface with the shiny side facing down.

Step 10

Spread 1/2 cup of cooked brown rice over the left half of the nori sheet, leaving about 2 cm of space at the top.

Step 11

Add 1 tablespoon of hummus on top of the rice, spreading it evenly.

Step 12

Place several pieces of flaked salmon, cucumber, red onion, cherry tomatoes, and crumbled feta on top of the hummus.

Step 13

Sprinkle with fresh dill to enhance the flavor.

Step 14

Starting from the bottom left corner, roll the nori into a cone shape, sealing the edge with a little water if needed.

Step 15

Repeat the process with the remaining nori sheets and fillings.

Step 16

Serve immediately and enjoy your Mediterranean Diet Salmon Handrolls!
