How to Make Your Nori Wraps

  1. Prepare the Nori Sheets: Lay out a nori sheet on a flat surface, shiny side down.
  2. Assemble the Ingredients: On one edge of the nori sheet, layer slices of avocado, broccoli sprouts, mung bean sprouts, and cucumber.
  3. Roll the Nori: Starting from the edge with the ingredients, roll the nori tightly around the filling. Press gently to secure the wrap.
  4. Slice and Serve: Use a sharp knife to slice the wrap into bite-sized pieces.
  5. Make the Dipping Sauce: In a small bowl, mix soy sauce, Sriracha (or your favorite hot sauce), tahini, toasted sesame oil, and lemon juice. If you prefer a soy-free option, swap out the soy sauce for coconut aminos. Stir until smooth.
  6. Dip and Enjoy: Serve the nori wraps with the dipping sauce on the side, and enjoy each bite dipped in the flavorful sauce.
