Crab And Mango Summer Rolls Food

SUMMER ROLL BOWL

Steps:

• For the dressing: Whisk together the honey, lime juice and jalapeno. Slowly whisk in the canola oil until combined. Season with a pinch of salt.
• For the noodles: Prepare the noodles according to package instructions. After draining, drizzle the noodles lightly with canola and toss to coat.
• For the shrimp: Toss the shrimp with the sriracha seasoning and a pinch of salt. Set aside.
• Combine the lime zest and juice and honey in a small bowl and set aside.
• Preheat a large skillet over medium heat and drizzle with the canola oil. Once the oil begins to shimmer, add the shrimp in a single layer and let cook, without moving, until the bottom sides are pink and the shrimp begin to curl, about 2 minutes. Flip each shrimp and allow to cook until barely cooked through, another 2 minutes. Remove to a plate and set aside.
• Add the honey mixture and butter to the pan. Whisk constantly until the butter melts and the glaze reaches a simmer, another 1 to 2 minutes. Continue whisking until the glaze gets thick and glossy and reduces by about half, about 3 minutes longer. Add the shrimp back in and stir everything together, glazing the shrimp and letting it finish cooking in the hot glaze.
• Divide the vermicelli noodles among 4 bowls. Top with shrimp, carrot, mango and cucumbers. Drizzle with the jalapeno lime dressing, then garnish with the herbs and serve.

If using wasabi powder, in a small bowl stir together with 2 teaspoons water and let stand, covered, 10 minutes to make wasabi paste.
• Cut nori sheets in half lengthwise. On a work surface put a sushi mat (see above note) with bamboo strips of mat parallel to front of work surface. (Alternatively, use a 9-inch square of heavy-duty foil as a mat.) Put 1 nori piece on mat with a short side lined up with edge of mat that is closest to you. Spread 1/4 teaspoon wasabi paste across bottom edge of nori and top with 5 or 6 mint leaves so that some stick out on each side. Top mint leaves evenly with a heaping tablespoon crab mixture and 2 or 3 mango strips. Beginning with a short side and using mat as a guide, roll up nori tightly (use mat to help tighten roll). Seal seam with a little water and with a sharp knife cut roll crosswise into 3 pieces. Make more rolls in same manner. Nori rolls may be made 3 hours ahead and chilled, covered.
