INSTRUCTIONS

 

  1. Place the cauliflower florets in a food processor and pulse using the S blade until they resemble rice.
  2. Heat 1 tbsp of oil in a non stick frying pan or cast iron skillet. Fry the cauliflower on a low/ medium heat for 5 - 6 minutes until al-dente. Remove from the pan and allow to fully cool.
  3. Prepare the veggies. Slice the cucumber and pepper into thin strips, discarding the seeds. Slice the avocado.
  4. Dry fry the sesame seeds in a non stick pan for 4 - 5 minutes on a low - medium heat until golden. Allow to cool.
  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. Slice into rounds with a sharp knife and repeat for the second roll.

And as always have a chilled day from the Viking
