Ok so this is mirical sushi😱😱😱Each roll is brace yourselves… 10 calories!!!
It’s amazing I know but I did the math over and over again and it checks out!!
Reminder that 10 calories = 1 potato chip!
So the entire plate is just a tad over 200 cals!! With your sweet chilli sauce and soy sauce you can bump it up (generously because I’m a paranoid rexy) to about 300 for the entire meal!!!
I just finished eating and I feel full but not bloated and I got some good nutrients in there too!!
I missed sushi so much because it could be like 100+ cals a roll YIKES!!
So here’s the recipe!
You will need:
1 cucumber
1 zucchini
1 capsicum
1 spring onion
1 carrot
Alfalfa sprouts
Bean sprouts
Nori seaweed paper
Mirical rice/ konjanc rice (0 cal rice)
Pepper
Cummin
Soy sauce/ sweet chilli to taste
Follow the instructions for your 0 cal rice to drain and prepare
Fry rice in pan without oil to dry out and liquid that may still be on it. Crack fresh black pepper and a pinch of cummin to give the rice some flavour
Begin chopping veggies while rice sits. I suggest peeling thin slices of carrot and zucchini and chopping cucumber and capsicum into thin strips. Chop the spring onion finely
This is the quantity of vedge I used
When you’ve chopped all the vedge begin rolling the sushi using the traditional method. I cant really explain the process but if you google it there are heaps of tutorials!
Be prepared to fail the first few times this was my first go and there was a dog pile of first time failures!
Keep in mind the trick to this super low cal sushi is in the konjanc rice! This beefs up the body of the meal and fools you into feeling hella full!!
Enjoy this recipe and please reblog to save an Ana from boring low cal food!
Heat extra virgin olive oil in a wok (lol or a frying pan) (1 tablespoon is enough), add the vegetables (the sliced garlic, julienned onion, carrots and cabbage, and soy sprouts) and the soy sauce sauce. Cook for about 5 minutes over medium-high heat.
Follow the directions of your rice paper or soak it in hot water for 3-5 seconds
Add 2 tablespoons of filling near the middle, and tightly roll the wrapper, fold over the left side, fold over the right side, then the top and bottom, and paint a little water along the edge and close it up.
Heat plenty of extra virgin olive oil in the wok and when it’s very hot, add the spring rolls and cook them for about 1 minute or until both sides are golden brown.
