Keto Sushi Rolls (without rice!)

It is possible to make delicious keto sushi rolls without rice! I've replaced it with cauliflower rice and come up with some tricks to mimic the sticky texture and taste of sushi rice. Cauliflower rice sushi means you can enjoy all the flavour of real Japanese sushi at only 4.3 net carbs per portion!

  1. Place the cauliflower florets in a food processor and pulse using the S blade until they resemble rice.

  5. Once the rice has fully cooled, place in a bowl and mix with the cream cheese or mayonnaise, vinegar and sesame seeds.
  6. Place the nori on a bamboo mat or clingfilm. Add the rice, leaving about 1 cm at the two opposing seal edges. Layer the cucumber, pepper, avocado and smoked salmon and once edge and tightly roll using the mat. Brush the sealing edge with a little water and press to seal.
