Preparation
  1. Rinse sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Cook according to package instructions, about 15-20 minutes. Let cool and mix in rice wine vinegar and a pinch of salt.
  2. Shred the imitation crab into a bowl. Mix in sriracha and kewpie mayo until well-coated.
  3. Assemble by layering rehydrated rice paper on top of a nori sheet. Cut a slit in the nori for easier folding.
  4. Spread the crab mixture in the center of the nori, then add sliced cucumber and avocado. Spoon rice into corners of the nori.
  5. Fold the rice paper over the fillings, sealing tightly.
  6. Pan-fry in neutral oil over medium heat for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden and crispy.
  7. Serve warm, sliced in half, with spicy mayo for dipping.
