Ingredients

Method

Special equipment: a bamboo sushi mat

1) In a medium bowl, mix together the crabmeat, mayonnaise, lemon juice, and sugar.

2) Place a piece of clingfilm on the sushi mat. Using wet fingers, spread a quarter of the rice evenly over the clingfilm to form a rectangle slightly smaller than the sushi mat. Lay a sheet of nori over the rice. Arrange 1/4 of the crab mixture along the centre of the nori leaving a 5cm border at the top. Top the crab mixture with 1/4 of the avocado slices, 1/4 of the mango slices, and 1/4 of the red pepper slices. Using the sushi mat as a guide, fold the rice over the filling and roll into a cylinder. Remove the clingfilm. Repeat with the remaining ingredients. Sprinkle each roll with the black sesame seeds.

3) To serve, using a sharp, damp knife, slice each cylinder into 6 pieces (re-wet the knife after each slice). Arrange the crab rolls on a serving platter and serve with wasabi, sweet pickled ginger and soy sauce.

4) For the sushi rice: Place the rice and water in a medium saucepan over a high heat. Bring the mixture to a boil. Cover the pan and reduce the heat to low. Simmer for 25 mins. Sprinkle the vinegar over the rice and mix with a fork. Transfer the cooked rice to a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Allow the rice to cool completely before using.

* Cook's Note: For spicier rolls, substitute the red pepper with 2 seeded and thinly sliced chillis.
