Prep the yellowtail: Slice the yellowtail fillet into thin strips, approximately 3-4 inches long. Set aside.
Prepare the vegetables: Thinly slice the cucumber into strips, julienne the carrot, cut the avocado into thin slices, and chop the green onions into small pieces.
Make the sauce: In a small bowl, mix the mayo, coconut aminos, lime juice, sesame oil (if using), and sea salt. Combine well and set aside.
Lay out the nori: Place a sheet of nori on a clean, flat surface with the rough side facing up.
Assemble the hand roll: In the bottom left corner of the nori sheet, layer a few slices of avocado, cucumber, carrot, green onion, and yellowtail. Add a small handful of mixed greens or sprouts.
Add the sauce: Drizzle or spread a small amount of the prepared sauce over the ingredients.
Roll it up: Starting from the bottom left corner, roll the nori diagonally into a cone shape. Use a tiny dab of water to seal the edge.
Repeat: Continue assembling and rolling until all 6 hand rolls are complete.
Serve immediately: Arrange the hand rolls on a platter and enjoy fresh!
