2 (6-ounce) cans lump crabmeat, drained
4 tablespoons wasabi mayonnaise
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon low-sodium soy sauce
1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh chives
For Green Onion Pancakes:
1 large egg, lightly beaten
2 tablespoons green onions, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons chopped chives, for garnish
2 tablespoons prepared wasabi, for garnish
In a medium bowl, combine the crabmeat, wasabi mayonnaise, lemon juice, soy sauce, and chives. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour.
For the Green Onion Pancakes: Using a pastry brush, lightly coat 1 side of each tortilla with the beaten egg. Sprinkle each of 2 tortillas, egg sides facing up, with 1 tablespoon sliced green onions. Take remaining 2 tortillas, egg sides facing down, and place on top of green onion sprinkled tortillas. Press firmly together.
With a 2-inch round cutter (or empty tomato paste can with top and bottom removed), carefully cut 8 to 10 rounds from each tortilla sandwich. Place green onion pancakes in a dry, nonstick skillet over medium heat. Toast pancakes until golden brown on each side. Remove to a plate and set aside.
To serve, spoon a small amount of crab mixture on top of each pancake. Garnish with chopped chives or a very small amount of prepared wasabi.

On her show she mentioned using the crab filling inside Flounder, so i did!
It was SOoooo good! I made a white sauce like you do for regular stuffed flounder(that was poured over the stuffed flounder and added some soy sauce to flavor it in an asian way . would suggest maybe substituting regular mayo for a few tablespoons of the Wasabi mayo if you have little ones who don't like it too hot. But this was beautiful in presentation and my dinner guests LOVED it!

The crab salad portion of this recipe is decent (especially if you splurge on fresh crab, but I really hate the idea of the tortillas. I tried them to give it a chance, but it just tasted "wrong" so to speak.
Don't worry though, there is still a semi-homemade way to make these if you don't want to make real scallion pancakes. It's just as easy, if not easier to fry up some store bought wonton skins with scallions in between, and the taste and texture is immensely improved. I like to shape mine into little cups for ease of eating, but they work fine left flat as well.

Both my boyfriend and I loved these. The tortilla discs were super easy to make. I couldn't find wasabi mayo (didn't look too hard though so used regular mayo and added wasabi to our taste. (You can find a lot of good Asian products, including Wasabi, at Cost Plus World Market and they are very inexpensive. I even whip up a batch to make in a wrap. Very, very good with a little kick from the wasabi!
