Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked organic white rice [fully cooled]
- 1 ripe avocado [thinly sliced]
- 1 tsp fresh ginger [finely grated]
- 1 small clove garlic [finely minced]
- 1 Tbsp coconut aminos
- 8-10 rice paper wrappers
- 2 Tbsp avocado oil
- 1 Tbsp toasted sesame seeds [optional garnish]
- Additional coconut aminos - OR- light drizzle of raw honey if desired [optional dipping sauce]
Instructions
- If the rice is not already prepared, cook the white rice ahead of time and allow it to cool completely. This step matters for texture and skin supportive benefits.
- Once cooled, gently mix the rice with the grated ginger, minced garlic, and coconut aminos until evenly combined.
- Set up a clean work surface and briefly soften one rice paper wrapper by dipping it into warm water for a few seconds. Lay it flat.
- Spoon a thin, even layer of the rice mixture across the center of the wrapper, pressing it down gently to create a compact base.
- Layer avocado slices on top of the rice, keeping everything centered so the roll stays tight.
- Carefully fold in the sides, then roll tightly into a log shape, pressing gently to seal. Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling.
- Heat one tablespoon of avocado oil in a skillet over medium heat. Once warm, place the rolls seam side down and cook until golden and crisp, about 2 to 3 minutes per side.
- Add the remaining avocado oil as needed and continue pan-searing in batches until all rolls are evenly crispy.
- Remove from heat and allow the rolls to rest briefly before slicing or serving whole.
- Serve warm, optionally sprinkled with toasted sesame seeds and paired with coconut aminos or a light touch of raw honey if desired.
