Ingredients
  • 8 oz imitation crab meat (leg style/ sticks)
  • 1 mango
  • 1/2 cup mayo
  • 2 Tbsps Sriracha
  • 1 Tbsp soy sauce
  • 4 cups cooked sushi rice cooled
  • 4 Tbsps rice vinegar
  • vegetable oil (enough to coat the bottom of the skillet)
  • Optional: sesame seeds, crushed wasabi peas, pickled ginger, soy sauce
Instructions
  1. Shred the crab or cut into long, thin strips. Peel the mango and cut into very thin strips. Put the crab and mango in a bowl and add the mayo, Sriracha, and soy sauce. Toss until evenly mixed.

  2. Mix the cooked, cooled sushi rice together with the rice vinegar. Form the rice into 8 balls with your hands.

    Note: Spray your hands with non stick cooking spray to prevent the rice from sticking to your hands.

  3. Pour vegetable oil into a large skillet over medium heat, enough to coat the bottom. Place 4 rice balls in the skillet and gently press down with a fork on each to flatten slightly. Cook 5 minutes per side, pressing a few more times throughout cooking. Repeat with remaining 4 rice balls, adding more vegetable oil to the skillet if needed.

  4. Top each crispy rice patty with the crab and mango salad. Top with sesame seeds and crushed wasabi peas if desired. Recommend serving with soy sauce and pickled ginger.
