- Cucumber – a small amount (thinly julienned and finely chopped)
- Scallions – a little (or the white part of a leek, finely chopped)
- Cooked rice – 1 serving
- Toasted sesame seeds – a pinch (for garnish)
Crab Mayo Sauce- Mayonnaise – 2.5 tablespoons
- Soy sauce – 1 tablespoon
- Honey or corn syrup – 0.5 tablespoon (adjust sweetness to your preference)
- Black pepper – a pinch (freshly ground)
- Mayonnaise – 2.5 tablespoons
- Soy sauce – 1 tablespoon
- Honey or corn syrup – 0.5 tablespoon (adjust sweetness to your preference)
- Black pepper – a pinch (freshly ground)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, shred the crab sticks into bite-sized pieces by hand or with chopsticks, following their natural grain. Shredding them slightly coarsely rather than too finely will result in a better texture.
Step 2
Wash the scallions (or leek) thoroughly, trim the root ends, and finely chop them. The fragrant aroma of the scallions will enhance the flavor of the rice bowl.
Step 3
Wash the cucumber under running water, then cut it into four lengthwise quarters. Next, carefully scoop out and remove the seeds from the center using a spoon or a small knife. This step helps prevent the cucumber from releasing too much moisture.
Step 4
Finely chop the julienned carrot and the seeded cucumber. It’s best to chop them into very fine pieces, as larger chunks can affect the texture.
Step 5
Now, let’s make the delicious crab mayo sauce! In a small bowl, combine 2.5 tablespoons of mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, 0.5 tablespoon of honey (or corn syrup), and a pinch of black pepper. Feel free to adjust the amount of honey to suit your preferred level of sweetness.
Step 6
Add the finely chopped carrot, cucumber, and scallions (or leek) to the sauce mixture. Stir everything together thoroughly until well combined. The colorful vegetables will add a beautiful aesthetic to the dish.
Step 7
Finally, gently add the shredded crab sticks to the bowl from step 5 and mix carefully. It’s important to mix gently to avoid breaking the crab sticks. Spoon this crab mayo mixture over a bowl of warm rice. Sprinkle a pinch of toasted sesame seeds on top for garnish, and your delicious Crab Stick Mayo Rice Bowl is ready! You can also add some shredded seaweed (gim) for an extra layer of flavor.
