2 nori sheets, chopped
250ml hot water

Preheat oven to 200°C. Take the nori, tamari, maple, apple cider vinegar, smoked paprika, garlic powder and place them in a blender; add the hot water and blend it all into a smooth marinade. Grate carrot into thin strips and place them in the marinade for 20 minutes.
Roll out puff pastry and cut into even tartlets using a pastry cutter. Place in oven for 12 minutes until puffed. Remove the pastry and allow them to cool. Once cooled place a teaspoon of vegan cream cheese – you can use garlic, onion or herb varieties of vegan cream cheese.
Place a piece of carrot on top and a sprig of dill and even a lemon wedge to serve.
