Ingredients

  • 1 cauliflower head
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon coconut aminos
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon ginger, minced
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 sushi rolling mat
  • 1 parchment paper

Directions

Step 1

Begin by removing the leaves and stem of the cauliflower. Chop the cauliflower into florets.

Step 2

Using a food processor, pulse the cauliflower florets until they reach a rice-like consistency. Be careful not to over-process.

Step 3

In a large skillet, heat sesame oil over medium heat. Add minced ginger and saute for about 1 minute until aromatic.

Step 4

Add the cauliflower rice to the skillet and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cauliflower is tender.

Step 5

In a small bowl, mix together rice vinegar, coconut aminos, and salt. Pour this mixture over the cauliflower rice while still in the skillet.

Step 6

Continue to cook the cauliflower rice for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.

Step 7

Remove the skillet from heat and let the cauliflower rice cool completely.

Step 8

Once cooled, lay out the sushi rolling mat and place a sheet of parchment paper over it.

Step 9

Spread a thin layer of the cauliflower rice evenly across the parchment paper, leaving about an inch of space at the top.

Step 10

Now it's ready for your favorite Whole30-compliant sushi fillings. Roll tightly using the sushi mat and parchment paper.

Step 11

Slice the sushi roll into bite-sized pieces using a sharp knife. Serve immediately.
