Keto Kinuta Maki
Cucumber-Wrapped Sashimi Roll
Yes, with a tweak: explicitly request no rice. About 4g net carbs per serving.
What it is
Instead of rice, thin slices of cucumber are used to wrap fresh sashimi-grade fish (like tuna, salmon, yellowtail) and sometimes avocado or crab stick, creating a refreshing and carb-free 'roll'.
Key ingredients
Cucumber, sashimi-grade tuna, salmon, or yellowtail, avocado, crab stick (imitation crab may have carbs, specify real crab if possible), keto mayonnaise or sugar-free ponzu.
How to make it keto
Explicitly request no rice. Confirm the use of real crab if desired, as imitation crab (surimi) contains starch and sugar. Ensure any sauces (e.g., spicy mayo) are sugar-free or keto-friendly.
Say this to the waiter (Japanese)
ケト砧巻きは、ご飯なしでお願いします。カニは本物で、ソース類はすべて砂糖不使用か確認してください。
