Are you craving sushi but trying to stick to a keto diet? This Keto Spicy Tuna Roll is the perfect solution! It's a low-carb, deliciously spicy, and easy-to-make alternative to traditional sushi rolls. With the right blend of flavors from the tuna, avocado, and a touch of heat from the chili sauce, this dish will surely satisfy your sushi cravings without derailing your diet.
Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Drain the canned tuna thoroughly to eliminate excess liquid.
- Place the drained tuna in a mixing bowl.
- Add 2 tablespoons of mayonnaise salad dressing, 2 tablespoons of chopped coriander leaves, and 2 teaspoons of chili sauce to the tuna.
- Mix all ingredients until well combined and the tuna is evenly coated.
- Place the seaweed sheet on a clean, flat surface, shiny side down. If you have a bamboo sushi mat, you can use it to help with rolling.
- Spread the tuna mixture evenly over the lower third of the seaweed sheet, leaving a small border around the edges.
- Arrange the avocado slices evenly on top of the tuna mixture. Make sure they are spread out sufficiently to ensure you get avocado in each bite.
- Start rolling the seaweed sheet from the bottom (closest to you), using gentle but firm pressure to keep the roll tight.
- Continue to roll until you reach the top edge of the seaweed sheet. Use a little bit of water to seal the edge if needed.
- Using a sharp knife, cut the roll into bite-sized pieces. To get clean cuts, it's helpful to wet the knife with a bit of water before each cut.
- Arrange the spicy tuna roll pieces on a serving plate.
- Serve immediately, optionally with additional chili sauce, soy sauce, or pickled ginger on the side for dipping.
Tips:
- Choose high-quality tuna: Opt for canned tuna in water rather than oil, as it has fewer calories and works better for keto recipes.
- Chill your ingredients: Cold ingredients, especially the avocado, make the rolling process easier and keep the roll intact.
- Use a bamboo sushi mat: A bamboo sushi mat helps immensely when rolling your ingredients into a tight, cohesive roll.
- Adjust the spice level: Feel free to increase or decrease the amount of chili sauce to match your personal heat tolerance.
- Serve immediately: For the best taste and texture, enjoy your Keto Spicy Tuna Roll as soon as it's made.
Making Keto Spicy Tuna Rolls at home is not only simple but also highly rewarding. With just a few ingredients, you can enjoy a tasty, low-carb version of a sushi classic. Whether you're new to keto or a seasoned pro, this recipe is sure to become a favorite in your meal rotation.
