This crab sushi roll with imitation crabmeat recipe is delicious and surprisingly simple to make. Sushi is expensive to buy at the supermarket, so making your own will save you tons of money. My husband is a sushi freak! I make this for him all the time.

Lay out seaweed sheets. Moisten hands with water, then spread cooled rice evenly on each sheet, leaving a 1/2-inch gap along one edge, lengthwise. Arrange strips of cucumber, imitation crabmeat, and cream cheese on top of the rice in a straight line along the side opposite the gap. Roll up sushi from the toppings to the seaweed sheet's exposed end.

Korean Saewoo Bokkeumbap (Shrimp Fried Rice)
Enjoy this shrimp fried rice with kimchi and other Korean side dishes. We lost our old rice cooker "Mr. Cuckoo" a few months ago, and because our new one makes exactly four servings, we no longer have leftover rice, which is ideal for making fried rice. Since my futile attempts to fix Mr. Cuckoo have come to an end, the missus now has to make new rice and let it cool for a few hours.
