Keto Sushi Recipe Ingredients
10 oz Frozen Riced Cauliflower - 1 teaspoon rice wine vinegar
- 3 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
- 4.25 oz canned crab meat, drained
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 2 teaspoons Sriracha sauce
- 1 tablespoon water
- 2 teaspoons wasabi paste
- Nori Seaweed Sheets
- 1/4 cucumber, julienne
- ½ avocado, sliced
- 4 oz cream cheese
Keto Sushi Directions
-
Make seasoned rice
Prepare the riced cauliflower according to the package instructions. Empty cauliflower into a bowl. Add in rice wine vinegar and sesame oil. Stir to combine. Set aside to cool down a bit. You want the rice to be slightly warm when rolling the sushi. This will help it roll together and seal the ingredients together.
-
Make crab mixture
In a separate bowl, combine the crab meat, mayonnaise and sriracha sauce. Mix until combined. Set aside.
-
Wasabi Cream
To make the wasabi cream, mix the mayonnaise, water and wasabi paste together in a separate bowl and set aside.
-
Layer down cauli rice
To assemble your roll, place a sheet of Nori shiny side down on a bamboo mat. Spread out the cauliflower rice in a thin layer all the way to the side edges of the nori sheet, but leave a small gap on the top and bottom of the sheet to allow for sealing the edges together.
-
Assemble the rolls
Line the julienned cucumber, avocado slices, and cream cheese in the row towards the bottom of the sheet. Top with a small layer of the crab mixture.
-
Start to roll
Wet your fingers with water and spread a thin layer of water on the top of the Nori sheet. This will help seal the end of the sushi roll together after you finished rolling.
-
Roll some more
Start rolling the bottom of the mat ¼ of the way and squeeze to press together, then unroll the mat. Repeat the process until the roll comes together. Squeeze together when done.
-
Cut into sushi
Using a sharp knife, cut the roll into 1 inch pieces. Dip the knife blade in water to keep it from sticking to your sushi.
-
Get the wasabi
Drizzle the california rolls with Wasabi Cream Sauce. Serve immediately.
Skip the expensive sushi restaurant and make keto California rolls at home with this easy recipe you can make in less than 30 minutes.Unless you’re a fan of sashimi, traditional sushi rolls are not keto approved since they contain rice. To make keto California rolls, or any custom keto sushi roll, we will use cauliflower rice instead. Some keto sushi recipes suggest omitting the rice all together, but I love the texture and flavor the rice provides.Even though we are using cauliflower rice to build the rolls, it will NOT give off that unpleasant cauliflower taste. In this sushi recipe, we will combine the riced cauliflower with rice vinegar and sesame oil. This gives our keto rice that traditional sushi rice flavor.
Bambo sushi rolling sheets – This helps to tightly roll the sushi.
Plastic wrap or parchment paper – Use these if you don’t have a sushi rolling mat.Soy sauce and wasabi – You can still dip your sushi rolls in these keto friendly ingredients 
What is the cream cheese for? Did I miss something in the directions?
You are right! Sorry about that. I update the directions. It gets cut into chunks and layered on with the avocado.
