Ingredients

  • 100 g flatbread wrap or burrito-sized flour tortillas
  • 400 g imitation crab
  • 150 g cream cheese
  • 100 g hard cheese
  • 50 g dill chopped
  • 2 eggs hard-boiled
  • Salt to your taste

Instructions

  • Boil eggs. I have a perfect post where I share all the tips to make perfect hard-boiled eggs. Grate eggs using a coarse grater.
  • Grate crabsticks using the coarse grater, too.
  • Hard cheese should be grated to go with other ingredients.
  • Spread the tortilla over the flat surface and smear the upper side with cream cheese.
  • Sprinkle chopped dill over the whole surface of the flatbread.
  • Evenly spread out grated cheese together with hard-boiled eggs.
  • Sprinkle-grated imitation crabmeat as the final top layer.
  • Start at one edge of the flatbread and roll it, tightly, until you make it to the opposite side. Cover the roll in plastic wrap and leave it for an hour in the fridge to chill.
  • Serve cut into not-too-thin pinwheels to prevent roll-ups from untwining.
