Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • A whole cauliflower (about 600g or 21 oz – you know, the regular size!)
  • A teaspoon of salt 5g or so, not too much!
  • A tablespoon of your favorite olive oil 15ml or about 0.5 fl oz
  • THE SUSHI ROLLS:
  • 4 sheets of nori seaweed
  • A ripe avocado peeled and sliced
  • One fresh cucumber julienned
  • A carrot julienned
  • A handful of fresh cilantro leaves or more if you love ’em like I do
  • Sesame seeds for sprinkling about a tablespoon (9g or 0.32 oz)

Method
 

Cauliflower Rice First:
  1. Cut the cauliflower up into florets, like little trees.
  2. Either blend or grate them until they look like rice.
  3. In a pan over medium heat, mix with olive oil and salt.
  4. Cook for 5-7 minutes, or until it’s just tender. Set aside for now.
Veggie Prep Time:
  1. Slice the avocado, make it pretty.
  2. Cut the cucumber and carrot into thin strips.
  3. Rolling the Cauliflower Rice Sushi Rolls:
  4. Place a nori sheet on a sushi rolling mat (or plastic wrap if you’re in a pinch).
  5. Spread that tasty cauliflower rice over the nori.
  6. Add avocado, cucumber, carrot, and cilantro.
  7. Add a sprinkle of sesame seeds for crunch.
  8. Roll it up tight, cut into 8 pieces, and repeat.

Notes

TIPS

  1. Easy on the cauliflower rice; you don’t want to tear the nori.
  2. Wet the knife for smooth cutting – learned this the hard way!
  3. Get creative with fillings; Cauliflower Rice Sushi Rolls are a blank canvas.

SERVING SUGGESTIONS

Serve these beauties with soy sauce, pickled ginger, and a touch of wasabi. Or go wild with some steamed edamame on the side. Cauliflower Rice Sushi Rolls are more than a meal; they’re an experience, one that’s sure to impress. Enjoy, my fellow sushi enthusiasts!
