Ingredients
- 8 sheets Nori sheets
- 2 cups Cauliflower rice
- 1 tablespoon Coconut oil
- 1 tablespoon Rice vinegar
- 1 cup Cooked shrimp
- 1 large Cucumber, julienned
- 1 large Carrot, julienned
- 1 large Avocado, sliced
- 2 tablespoons Coconut aminos
- 2 tablespoons Pickled ginger (optional)
- 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the coconut oil.
Step 2
Add the cauliflower rice to the skillet and cook for 3-5 minutes until just tender. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
Step 3
Remove the cooked cauliflower rice from the heat and mix in the rice vinegar. Let it cool to room temperature.
Step 4
Lay a sheet of nori on a clean, flat surface, shiny side down.
Step 5
Spread a thin layer of the cooled cauliflower rice on one-third of the nori sheet. Leave the other two-thirds bare.
Step 6
Add a few slices of shrimp, cucumber, carrot, and avocado on top of the cauliflower rice.
Step 7
Roll the nori sheet into a cone shape, starting from one corner, pressing gently to seal the edges. If needed, you can dab a little water on the edge to help seal the cone.
Step 8
Repeat the process for the remaining nori sheets and fillings.
Step 9
Serve with coconut aminos for dipping, and garnish with pickled ginger and sesame seeds if desired.
