Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     Asian     Japanese

Time 1h50m

Yield 5

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 cups water
2 cups uncooked white rice
½ cup seasoned rice vinegar
1 teaspoon white sugar, or as needed
1 teaspoon salt, or as needed
¼ pound cooked crab meat, drained of excess liquid and shredded
1 tablespoon mayonnaise
5 sheets nori (dry seaweed)
1 avocado, sliced
¼ cup red caviar, such as tobiko
1 English cucumber, seeded and sliced into strips
2 tablespoons drained pickled ginger, for garnish
2 tablespoons soy sauce, or to taste
1 tablespoon wasabi paste

Steps:

  • Wrap a sushi rolling mat completely in plastic wrap and set aside.
  • Bring water and rice to a boil in a saucepan over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the rice is tender and the liquid has been absorbed, 20 to 25 minutes. Transfer rice to a bowl and cut in rice vinegar using a rice paddle or wooden spoon. Season with 1 teaspoon sugar and 1 teaspoon salt, or to taste. Allow to cool to room temperature, about 30 minutes.
  • Combine crab meat with mayonnaise in a small bowl.
  • Place a sheet of nori on a flat work surface. Spread a thin layer of rice on top of the nori. Place the nori, rice side down, on the prepared rolling mat. Place 2 to 3 avocado slices on top of the nori in one layer. Top with 2 to 3 tablespoons of the crab mixture. Spoon 1 to 2 teaspoons tobiko lengthwise on one side of the avocado-crab mixture, and 2 cucumber strips on the other side. Using the mat as a guide, carefully roll the California roll into a tight log. Remove the rolling mat. Top roll with more tobiko, cover with plastic wrap, and gently press the tobiko into the top of the roll. Remove the plastic and cut roll into 6 even pieces using a wet knife. Repeat with remaining sheets of nori and filling. Serve garnished with pickled ginger, soy sauce, and wasabi paste

TUNA AND CRAB WRAPS/CRAB AND AVOCADO WRAPS



Tuna and Crab Wraps/Crab and Avocado Wraps image

I have never really thought of myself as a person who could wrap, fold or fiddle about with food or ever felt that way inclined. But you know, when you get into it, it's really quite OK - actually, more than OK. These wraps are curiously relaxing to assemble and everyone is always bowled over by them. They're a very good way of injecting a little zing into the proceedings without having to slave for hours over a hot stove. I have added the option of the crab wraps, as I do understand not everyone is happy working with or even eating raw tuna. But please do try those ones, too: They are actually a very unspooky experience. Just be sure to ask a fishmonger for sashimi-grade tuna and buy it the day you want to eat it. For both the recipes below I've given the basic unit of wrap; that's to say amounts are sufficient to fill one tortilla, which in turn will yield three pieces once rolled and cut.

Categories     main-dish

Time 25m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 teaspoon mayonnaise
1/2 teaspoon wasabi paste
1 or 2 drops sesame oil
1 soft flour tortilla wrap
1/2 carrot, peeled and cut into matchsticks to give 1/2 cup
Quarter cucumber, halved lengthways, seeded and cut into matchsticks to give 1/2 cup
3 ounces tuna, sliced into 1/16 by 3/4-inch rectangles
1/2 cup white crabmeat
1 teaspoon mayonnaise
1/2 teaspoon wasabi paste
1 or 2 drops sesame oil
1/2 avocado
1/4 cup finely shredded iceberg lettuce
Squeeze lemon juice
1 soft flour tortilla wrap

Steps:

  • Whisk together the mayonnaise, wasabi and sesame oil in a small bowl, and paint the tortilla wrap with this mixture on 1 side.
  • Arrange a row of carrots horizontally 3/4-inch to 1 1/4-inch up from the bottom of the wrap you have in front of you. Then arrange the cucumber on top of the carrot in the same way, or as best as you can as it may slip down a little. Finally, top with the slices of tuna also lying them horizontally as this makes it easy to wrap up. Roll up the wrap as tightly as you can, starting from the bottom. You want to end up with a fat Cuban cigar.
  • Cut across the rolled wrap diagonally to make 3 pieces.
  • Put the crabmeat into a bowl and add the mayonnaise, wasabi paste and oil and stir to mix. Lay the wrap in front of you and put the crabmeat in a line horizontally 2cm/about an inch up from the bottom of the wrap. Take the avocado half still with skin and scoop out the flesh in half teaspoonful curls, laying these on top of the line of crabmeat. Sprinkle over the lettuce in a neat line also, and then spritz with the lemon juice. Roll up tightly from the bottom, to form a fat cigar and then slice on an angle into 3 pieces.
  • The 2 recipes combined make 6 pieces

CALIFORNIA WRAP AND ROLL



California Wrap and Roll image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     appetizer

Time 1h5m

Yield 4 servings or about 10 appetizers

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup white rice (not converted or 5 minute)
1 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
2 scallions, both white and green parts, trimmed and chopped
1 1/4 teaspoons drained bottled horseradish
2 teaspoons fresh lime juice
1 teaspoon soy sauce
1 small ripe avocado, preferably Hass, peeled, pitted, and sliced
2 lavash rectangles, cut in half
6 ounces sea legs (surimi) or crabmeat, picked over for cartilage
14 to 16 thin slices of pickled ginger

Steps:

  • Boil 2 cups of water in a medium saucepan. Add the rice and salt and return to a boil, stirring once or twice. Reduce the heat to low and simmer, covered, stirring twice to promote stickiness, until all the moisture is absorbed, about 18 minutes. Allow to cool, uncovered, for about 15 minutes, or remove to a plate to speed cooling.
  • Combine the vinegar, scallions, horseradish, 1 1/2 teaspoons of the lime juice, and the soy sauce in a small bowl. Stir into the rice. Toss the avocado and remaining 1/2 teaspoon lime juice together in a separate small bowl.
  • To assemble: With a long end of a lavash half facing you, lay a quarter of the rice mixture evenly over the lavash, leaving a 1-inch border. Distribute a quarter of the crab, avocado, and ginger slices evenly over the rice and roll away from you, as tightly as possible. Complete the wraps with the remaining ingredients. Or, if you prefer, prepare all at once assembly-line style. Slice in half on the bias if serving for lunch. For appetizers, cut into 1- to 2-inch pieces and serve with the spirals facing up.

SUMMER CRAB WRAPS - MEXICO



Summer Crab Wraps - Mexico image

This recipe has been submitted for play in ZWT8 - Mexico, Courtesy of Mission Foods. Please note that cooking time is chilling time. The longer they sit the more the flavors will blend and they will firm up more, allowing for easier cutting. Can't wait to try this recipe, it sounds awesome to me. You could easily substitute other crab meat for the lump crab if you desired.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Fresh crab, ripe avocado, and crisp vegetables will make a big difference.
  • Be careful not to overcook the crab. It should be cooked just until it is opaque and tender.
  • Use a variety of vegetables in your wraps. This will add flavor, color, and texture.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different flavors. Add a squeeze of lemon juice, a dollop of sour cream, or a sprinkle of chili powder to taste.
  • Serve the wraps immediately after they are made. This will prevent the tortillas from becoming soggy.

Conclusion:

California crab wraps are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for lunch or dinner. They are packed with flavor and nutrients, and they can be customized to your liking. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a delicious and satisfying meal that the whole family will enjoy.
