Creamy devilled eggs inspired by the flavours of a California sushi roll, filled with avocado, cucumber, wasabi and coconut aminos, then topped with crabmeat, nori, pickled ginger and toasted sesame seeds.
Place the eggs in silicone muffin cups to prevent them from moving around and cracking during cooking.
Place the silicone cups in the air fryer basket and cook the eggs for 15 minutes.
Combine the ice cubes and water in a medium bowl.
Immediately transfer the cooked eggs to the ice-water bath and leave for 5 minutes.
Carefully peel the eggs and cut them in half lengthwise.
Remove the yolks and place them in a medium bowl. Arrange the egg-white halves on a large plate.
Mash the egg yolks with the mayonnaise, coconut aminos, avocado and wasabi powder until smooth.
Fold in the diced cucumber.
Spoon the filling evenly into the egg-white halves.
Top with the crabmeat, sliced nori and pickled ginger.
Sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds and serve.
Notes & Wine Advice
Serving Suggestions
Serve these eggs chilled or at cool room temperature as an Appetizer, Amuse or small Snack. Arrange them on a platter and add the crabmeat, nori, ginger and sesame seeds shortly before serving.
Recipe Notes
Placing the eggs in silicone muffin cups keeps them from rolling around inside the Airfryer. Transfer them directly to the ice-water bath after cooking. This stops the cooking process and cools them quickly for peeling.
Variations
Adjust the wasabi powder according to how much heat you prefer. You can also vary the amount of avocado or cucumber while keeping the filling firm enough to remain inside the egg whites. For the best presentation, add the Seafood and garnishes after filling the eggs.
Storage Advice
Keep the prepared devilled eggs covered in the refrigerator and use within 2 days. Because they contain cooked eggs, mayonnaise and crabmeat, do not leave them at room temperature for extended periods. Add the nori shortly before serving so it retains its texture.
Wine Advice
A crisp Sauvignon Blanc works particularly well with the crab, cucumber, avocado and wasabi. A dry Riesling is another good choice, especially if you increase the wasabi.
