If you don’t know how to dice an Avocado, it’s okay. Before I get into the ingredients I will give some instructions how how to cut an Avocado.
First, cut the avocado in half. Then, remove the pit – to do that, aim your knife at the pit and whack into it, twist the knife to pull out the pit. Next, use your knife’s tip to score avocado flesh, making squares, then scoop it out with a spoon. If you are looking to slice the avocado, use a spoon to loosen skin all the way around, and scoop out the whole inside. Place flat side down on cutting board and slice using the tip of your knife.

Dipping Sauce: In a small, microwave safe bowl, stir together vinegars, saffron powder and honey, and microwave for 1 minute. Stir and set aside. Add to a blender the rest of the sauce ingredients and the honey mixture. Puree until all combined and fully blended. Pour mixture into a bowl and stir, if needed stir in more olive oil to thin it out. Refrigerate until ready to use.
Avocado Rolls: In a large bowl, gently stir together diced avocados, chopped sun-dried tomatoes, onion, cilantro, and salt. Place one egg roll on a cutting board, so that a corner is pointing toward you. Brush the edges of the wrapper with egg mixture. Distribute avocado filling evenly onto the center. Fold the bottom corner up, 1/4 of the way over the filling. Roll up from side to side, fold top corner over all and press to seal. Repeat with remaining egg roll wrappers. Add oil to a deep pan over medium/high heat. You should add enough oil, in order to be able to submerge a batch of avocado egg rolls. Heat the oil to 375 degrees F. Deep fry the egg rolls in batches, for about 3-4 minutes, until golden brown. Remove rolls from oil and place on paper towels to drain excess oil. Serve.
