Required ingredients

We need 200-300 grams of crab sticks, this is about 12-15 pieces. When choosing the main component of our dish, we pay special attention to the size (they should be large) and the degree of possible unfolding. That is, those that can later be easily deployed without damaging the product. These initially contain less starch.

Also take a package of mayonnaise, 200 grams of any hard cheese, 2 cloves of garlic, parsley, dill. For decoration, you may need a couple of cucumbers.

Preparation

The recipe for rolls of crab sticks suggests a fairly simple cooking process. You just chop the garlic with a crush, grate cheese on a large grater, finely chop the greens and mix all the ingredients with the necessary amount of mayonnaise. Separately, cut into thin pieces of cucumber.

Gently unfold the crab stick. Do not particularly zealous, let a couple of millimeters with the edge will be rolled up. Now we put on the canvas the prepared stuffing in a small amount, a very thin layer. Top a piece of cucumber. Then carefully turn the crab stick back.

Now the crab stick is slightly thicker than the original size. It remains to glaze off the edges with a mass for the filling, so that the crab sticks look cute. And in order to cut them it was more convenient, we put the prepared dish in the refrigerator for 20 minutes.

Decor

After the rolls of crab sticks stood a little in the fridge, they can be cut into small pieces. One roll can be divided into 3-4 pieces. They need to be nicely laid out on a dish, over salad leaves and decorated with thin slices of cucumber, twigs of greens.

Variations

Rolls of crab sticks can accept many different variations. You just need to change the stuffing a little and get a new treat. For example, in minced meat, you can add a couple of hard-boiled eggs.

Alternatively, there is an alternative recipe for filling from canned fish. You will need: a bank of sprats in oil, 2 processed cheese, a bunch of greens, for dressing - mayonnaise. All the ingredients are crushed and stuffed with crab sticks.

If desired, you can prepare a multicolour forcemeat for crab sticks. To do this, separately to boil a large carrot, medium-sized table beet. Each of these vegetables should be grated and combined with mayonnaise and garlic. In the same way, you can get a paste from a fresh cucumber. As a result, we get rolls with yellow, green and red fillings.
