Crispy Nori Rolls

Crispy Nori Rolls are a delightful Paleo snack that combines the umami flavors of nori with a crunchy vegetable filling. Perfect for a light appetizer or snack, these rolls are both satisfying and nutritious.

Ingredients

• Nori sheets - 4
• Cauliflower rice - 1 cup
• Carrot - 1 medium, grated
• Cucumber - 1 small, julienned
• Avocado - 1 medium, sliced
• Sesame oil - 1 tablespoon
• Coconut aminos - 2 tablespoons
• Sea salt - to taste
• Black sesame seeds - 1 tablespoon

Steps

1. Prepare the cauliflower rice by pulsing cauliflower florets in a food processor until it resembles rice.
2. In a skillet, heat sesame oil over medium heat and add cauliflower rice, cooking for about 5-7 minutes until tender.
3. Add grated carrot, julienned cucumber, and a pinch of sea salt to the skillet, mixing well for another 2-3 minutes.
4. Remove from heat and let the mixture cool slightly before assembling the rolls.
5. Lay a nori sheet shiny side down on a bamboo sushi mat or a flat surface.
6. Spoon a portion of the cauliflower mixture onto the bottom third of the nori sheet, leaving a small border.
7. Top the mixture with a few slices of avocado and sprinkle with black sesame seeds.
8. Carefully roll the nori away from you, tucking it tightly as you go to form a cylinder. Wet the edge of the nori with water to seal.
9. Repeat the process for the remaining nori sheets and filling.
10. Slice the rolls into bite-sized pieces with a sharp knife and serve with coconut aminos for dipping.
