Don't like rolling sushi? Then this paleo open cauliflower sushi salad is for you. Simply open up the Nori, add your toppings and enjoy the flavours.
Ingredients
½ head of cauliflower, turned into 'rice' in the food processor*
2 Tbs apple cider vinegar
2 tsp sesame oil
1 tsp honey
juice half a lime
½ tsp salt
4 spring onions, thinly sliced diagonally
1 Tbs black sesame seeds + extra for sprinkle
4 sheets nori
½ avocado
100g smoked salmon
6 radishes, thinly sliced
10cm chunk grated cucumber
a few springs of coriander
tamari
Instructions
Steam the cauliflower rice, drain and allow to cool off a little.
Meanwhile combine the vinegar, sesame oil, honey, lime juice and salt. Pour over the cauliflower rice, stir well and allow to sit for 5 minutes. Toss through the sesame seeds and the spring onions. Taste and add extra salt if necessary.
Now you can compose your salad. Place 2 nori sheets in a pasta-bowl at angles, and spoon in the ‘rice’. Dot over the avocado, the smoked salmon, and the radish, then sprinkle over the cucumber, coriander, and a few more sesame seeds.
Finish with a drizzle of tamari at the table.
Notes
To make the cauliflower 'rice', chop your raw cauliflower into chunks, and blitz in a food processor until the pieces resemble tiny bits of rice.
