Using a sharp knife, slice the yellowtail into thin strips that are about 1/2 inch wide and 2 inches long. Set aside.
Julienne the cucumber into matchstick-sized pieces. Cut the avocado into thin slices. Thinly slice the green onion into long, fine strips.
In a small bowl, combine the coconut aminos, lime juice, sesame oil, grated ginger, and a pinch of sea salt. Stir well to combine and set the sauce aside.
Lay one nori sheet shiny side down on a clean surface. Place a few pieces of yellowtail diagonally across one corner of the nori sheet.
Layer some cucumber, avocado, and green onion on top of the yellowtail.
Drizzle a small amount of the prepared sauce over the ingredients. Do not overfill the roll.
Starting from the corner with the filling, carefully roll the nori into a cone shape, ensuring that all the ingredients are tucked in tightly. Use a small dab of water to seal the edge of the nori if necessary.
Repeat the process with the remaining nori sheets and ingredients to make a total of four hand rolls.
Serve the hand rolls immediately with the extra dipping sauce on the side for added flavor.
