Ingredients

Cauliflower rice

  • 1 head cauliflower
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • sea salt to taste

For the sushi filling

  • 4 ounces tuna sashimi grade
  • 2 tbsp avocado mayonnaise or make your own mixing avocado and mayonnaise
  • 2 tbsp sriracha
  • 1 small cucumber
  • ½ avocado
  • 2 sheets nori
  • coconut aminos to taste
  • pickled ginger to taste

Instructions

Cauliflower rice

  • Preheat your oven to around 425 degrees F
  • Chop your cauliflower into small pieces that can fit into a food processor. Pulse for 2 seconds each time—until the cauliflower looks like rice.
  • Spread the processed cauliflower on an aluminum foil-lined in a baking sheet, and then spray it with some olive oil. You can also toss the cauliflower with the olive oil and then spread it out in an even manner.
  • Toast in your oven for around 30 minutes, and make sure that you stir twice to allow even cooking.

Preparing the sushi

  • Start by mincing your tuna, and then mix it with the avocado mayonnaise, a pinch of salt, and sriracha.
  • Slice your cucumber into thin, long strips.
  • Slice the avocado into thin slices
  • Next, place the nori on your bamboo mat or towel, and then cover it with the cooked cauliflower rice. Make sure that you leave a 1-inch gap at the far end from you.
  • Now, start layering the topping on the end that’s nearest to you.
  • Using the towel or mat, start rolling the sushi away from you.
  • When rolled, slice it into 6 or 8 portions, and then serve with pickled ginger, coconut aminos, and wasabi.
