Time 27m

Yield 6 cups

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 pound lump crabmeat, drained and patted dry with paper towels
1/4 cup mayonnaise
4 teaspoons lemon juice
4 teaspoons light brown sugar
5 cups cooked Sushi Rice, recipe follows
4 toasted nori sheets*
1 avocado, seeded, peeled and cut into thin slices
1 mango, peeled and cut into thin slices
1/2 red bell pepper, cored, seeded and cut into thin slices
1/4 cup black sesame seeds*
2 cups short-grain sushi rice (recommended: Kokuho Rose)*
2 1/2 cups water
1/4 cup seasoned rice vinegar

Steps:

  • *Can be found at specialty Asian markets
  • Serving suggestion: wasabi, sweet picked ginger, soy sauce
  • In a medium bowl, mix together the crabmeat, mayonnaise, lemon juice, and sugar.
  • Place a piece of plastic wrap on the sushi mat. Using wet fingers, spread 1 1/4 cups of the rice evenly over the plastic wrap to form a rectangle slightly smaller than the sushi mat. Lay a sheet of nori over the rice. Arrange 1/4 of the crab mixture along the center of the nori leaving a 2-inch border at the top. Top the crab mixture with 1/4 of the avocado slices, 1/4 of the mango slices, and 1/4 of the red bell pepper slices. Using the sushi mat as a guide, fold the rice over the filling and roll into a cylinder. Remove the plastic wrap. Repeat with the remaining ingredients. Sprinkle each roll with the black sesame seeds.
  • To serve, using a sharp, damp knife, slice each cylinder into 6 pieces (re-wet the knife after each slice). Arrange the crab rolls on a serving platter and serve with wasabi, sweet pickled ginger and soy sauce.
  • *Can be found at specialty Asian markets
  • Place the rice and water in a medium saucepan over high heat. Bring the mixture to a boil. Cover the pan and reduce the heat to low. Simmer for 25 minutes. Sprinkle the vinegar over the rice and mix with a fork. Transfer the cooked rice to a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Allow the rice to cool completely before using.

This is one of my favorite appetizers at a local seafood restaurant. I loved it so much that I've recreated it at home. It makes enough for two generously portioned stacks.

CRAB & AVOCADO SANDWICH



Crab & Avocado Sandwich image

This is so good! And very adaptable to your own tastes or to what you have available in your kitchen (the best part is the taste of crab & avocado together!). I first tried it at a restaurant 20+ years ago and have been making it at home ever since. I like it just the way I've posted but you can sub any type of bread, any type of crab, use avocado dip instead of fresh slices, and your choice of condiments. You can also melt the cheese for a couple of minutes under the broiler for a hot sandwich. Have fun!
