Steps:

- Place half of a nori sheet on top of the bamboo mat shiny side facing down.

Steps:
- Shred crabmeat using 2 forks or in a food processor.
- Mix crabmeat, mayonnaise, and sriracha sauce together in a small bowl.
- Fill a shallow bowl with hot water to a depth of 2 inches. Dip 1 rice paper wrapper in the water for a few seconds to soften; set on a wooden cutting board or a clean, moist dish towel. Layer 1/4 of the cucumber, carrot, avocado, crabmeat mixture, and green onion in the bottom third of the rice paper.
- Pull bottom of the rice paper over the filling, using your fingers to prevent it from spilling out the sides. Fold opposing edges of the rice paper to overlap the filling; roll up tightly towards the top. Place roll seam-side down on a plate. Repeat with remaining rice papers and cucumber, carrot, avocado, crabmeat mixture, and green onion.

FRESH CRAB SPRINGROLLS
Steps:
- Preheat the fryer to 360 degrees F.
- In a small mixing bowl, add the noodles. Season the noodles with sesame oil, soy sauce, salt, green onions and black pepper. Mix thoroughly. Bring water to a boil in a 10-inch saute pan and remove from the heat. Submerge each spring roll wrapper, 1 at a time, in the hot water, moving it around in the water until soft and pliable, 10 to 15 seconds. Remove and lay on the parchment paper.
- In another small mixing bowl, combine the crabmeat, mayonnaise, and chili paste. Mix well. Season with salt and pepper. Place 1 tablespoon of the crab mixture over the wrapper and top with 1 tablespoon of the noodle mixture. On top of the noodles, sprinkle 1 tablespoon of the sprouts. Top the sprouts with the 1 tablespoon of the papaya, 1 tablespoon of the carrots, 1 tablespoon of the cilantro, and 1 tablespoon of the mint. Fold 2 sides of the wrapper toward the center about 1/4-inch, then roll like a jelly roll, pressing the edges together to seal. Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling. Fry half of the spring rolls until golden. Remove and drain on paper towels. Season with salt. Slice each roll in half diagonally. Serve the rolls on a large platter with the Spicy Peanut Sauce. Garnish with chopped cilantro.
- In a food processor, combine all ingredients together. Process until smooth, then transfer to small bowls for dipping.

Steps:
- In a deep-fryer or Dutch oven, add oil to fill 2/3 of the way and preheat to 375 degrees F.
- In a saute pan, add the 2 tablespoons oil. Add onion and garlic, and cook for 2 minutes over medium-high heat. Add cabbages, green onion, carrot, oyster sauce and salt and pepper, to taste. Cook over high heat for about 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the heat, drain excess liquid, and cool. Fold in crabmeat and mix to combine. Separate the sheets of spring roll wrappers, and keep under a slightly damp towel. Place 2 tablespoons of crabmeat filling on the wrapper. Fold nearest edge of wrapper over filling; fold left and right corners toward the center. Roll tightly and seal with the egg wash. Place the spring rolls into the preheated oil and fry until golden brown. Place on paper towels to drain. Serve with Pickled Ginger Vinaigrette.
- In a mixing bowl, combine dashi, sugar and rice wine vinegar. Transfer mixture to a blender and add fresh ginger, pickled ginger and salt. Slowly add salad oil to the blender. Serve chilled.
Tips:
- Use fresh crab meat. Fresh crab meat has a much better flavor and texture than canned or frozen crab meat.
- Don't overcook the crab meat. Crab meat is very delicate and can easily be overcooked. Cook it just until it is opaque and tender.
- Use a variety of vegetables in your spring rolls. This will add flavor, texture, and color to the rolls.
- Don't overfill the spring rolls. Overfilled spring rolls will be difficult to roll and will likely break apart when you fry them.
- Be careful when frying the spring rolls. Hot oil can splatter, so be sure to wear long sleeves and gloves.
Conclusion:
Spicy crab spring rolls are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or snack. They are perfect for parties or potlucks, and they can also be made ahead of time and frozen. With a little practice, you'll be able to make these spring rolls like a pro!
