Method
- 1 Tear the imitation crab sticks into strips and pat them dry; wet strips will make the seaweed soft and mushy when rolled.
- 2 Cut the nori seaweed sheets into strips 3 cm wide.
- 3 Place a pinch of crab meat on a strip of seaweed, then wrap it tightly around the seaweed and seal the joint with a thin flour paste.
- 4 Roll each roll through the egg, then through the breadcrumbs.
- 5 Deep-fry at 170 degrees for 2 minutes until lightly golden, then drain on a rack and serve with mayonnaise and pepper dip.
