Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 ounces Imitation crab meat (or fresh crab meat)
- 8 ounces Cream cheese
- 2 tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 3 stalks Green onions, finely chopped
- 1 stalk Celery, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 5 Flour tortillas (8-inch)
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley, finely chopped (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, mayonnaise, lemon juice, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until smooth and creamy.
Finely chop the imitation crab meat (or fresh crab meat, if using) and add it to the bowl.
Fold in the chopped green onions and celery, mixing thoroughly to combine all the ingredients evenly.
Lay one tortilla flat on a clean work surface. Spread a generous amount of the crab mixture evenly over the tortilla, leaving a 1/2-inch border around the edges.
Carefully roll the tortilla tightly into a log. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and crab mixture.
Wrap each rolled-up tortilla in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld and the rollups to firm up.
After chilling, remove the plastic wrap and use a sharp knife to slice each tortilla rollup into 1-inch pieces.
Arrange the crab rollups on a serving platter. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired, and serve immediately.
