Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 Cup cabbage shredded
- 12 Egg roll wrappers
- 1 egg for egg wash
- 1 Tablespoon water for egg wash
Crab cakes
- 1 Pound lump crab meat or imitation
- ½ Cup panko breadcrumbs
- ¼ Cup mayonnaise
- ½ Tablespoon Old Bay seasoning
- 1 Teaspoon black pepper coarse
- 1 Teaspoon coarse sea salt
- 1 Tablespoon lemon juice
- ½ Cup green onions chopped
- 1 Tablespoon sriracha
- 1 Tablespoon mustard stone ground
- 1 Teaspoon horseradish
Fire sauce
- 1 ½ Cups sour cream
- ½ Cup sweet chili sauce
- ½ Tablespoon hot sauce
- 2 Teaspoon Old Bay seasoning
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees F for 5 minutes
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine all ingredients for crab cakes. Mix well. Use a cookie scoop to scoop out crab cake mix and form into balls. Press between your palms to tightly form the crab cake balls.
- Add crab cake to the air fryer and cook for 10 minutes.
- While the crab cakes are cooking, prepare the fire sauce. Combine all ingredients in a small mixing bowl and whisk. Set aside ¾ of a cup to use as dip. Add shredded cabbage to the bowl and toss with remaining sauce.
- Remove crab cakes from the air fryer. Cut each crab cake in half.
- Prepare the egg rolls. Lay an egg roll wrapper flat on a solid work surface. Spread 2 tbsp of cabbage mix down the center of each egg roll wrapper in a diagonal line.
- Add 3 crab cake halves on top of the cabbage cut side down.
- Make the egg wash by whisking together the egg and water in a small bowl.
- To fold the eggroll, position it in front of you like a diamond. Brush the egg wash along the edges. Think of the corner furthest from you as corner 1, the left corner is #2, right is #3, and the closest corner is #4. The filling inside of the egg roll should be going diagonally between #2 and #3. Take corner 1 and fold it over the filling. Next, fold corner 3 towards the center. Do the same with corner 2. Tightly roll the egg roll towards corner 4. Place finished egg rolls onto a parchment lined baking sheet as you work.
- Brush each egg roll with egg wash on all sides.
- Preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees F for 5 minutes
- Lightly spray the air fryer basket with non-stick cooking spray. Place into the air fryer and cook for 8 to 10 minutes- about halfway through cooking time, turn the egg rolls over to evenly cook. Check that egg rolls have a golden brown colour before removing.
- Serve with fire sauce.
