How to Prepare Nori Seaweed Rolls With Vegetables and Sprouts [Vegan]

Remove the peel from the ginger, cut it into two thin slices and place it in a bowl with soy sauce or tamari.
Wash all the vegetables and the sprouts and dry them well. With a mandolin, cut the carrot into thin slices and then into strips; Proceed in the same way with the turnip. Peel the avocado, cut it in half and from one of the two halves obtain three thin slices that you will use to stuff the rolls after having divided them into two parts each.
Cut the remaining part into small pieces, put it in a bowl, add a pinch of salt and a few drops of lemon and crush it with a fork to reduce it to cream.
On a cutting board covered with a kitchen towel, spread the nori sheet with the long side to form the base of the rectangle. Spread a light layer of avocado cream on ¾ of the surface, leaving the upper band free. Arrange the vegetables proceeding horizontally starting from the bottom of the nori sheet so as to form many strips of different vegetables without mixing them together. Start by forming a strip of carrot into strips, then proceed with the beetroot cut into matches; add the sliced avocado (3 pieces per roll) the leek sprouts into small heaps forming a horizontal strip and finish with the bean sprouts.
Using the kitchen towel, lift the seaweed and close the smallest wrapper you can without breaking it (a diameter of about 1 inch is ideal). Finally wet the upper edge so as to seal it well. Cut it into cylinders of about 1 inch in length.
Remove the ginger from the sauce, place the rolls on a plate and serve them with individual bowls of soy sauce or tamari.
