It is not known who came up with the idea of using pita bread to prepare rolls with various fillings, but many people liked the idea. One of the snack options is a lavash roll with crab sticks. It is prepared quickly and from available products, and, as a rule, does not remain on the table.
Good to know
To prepare the rolls, you must use thin Armenian lavash.
- To make your snack tasty, you need to purchase high-quality crab sticks made from minced surimi fish, and not from soy products. Then the sticks are either grated or finely chopped with a knife.
- The rest of the filling ingredients are selected to suit your taste. You can use soft curd or processed cheese, add vegetables or cooked rice to the filling.
- If you decide to prepare a hot version of the pita bread snack, then the roll will need to be baked in the oven or fried.
Interesting Facts! The method of preparing Armenian lavash was included in the UNESCO list of intangible heritage of humanity in 2014.
Lavash roll with crab sticks, melted cheese and egg
A popular appetizer is a lavash roll with crab sticks, melted cheese and egg.
- 1 sheet of thin Armenian lavash;
- 100 gr. soft processed cheese;
- 1 egg;
- 1-2 tablespoons of mayonnaise;
- 5-6 crab sticks;
- salt, black pepper, fresh herbs to taste.
Boil the egg hard in advance, cool and peel. Wash the greens, dry and finely chop. Grate the egg on a fine grater, mix with herbs and mayonnaise. Add salt and black pepper to taste.
Advice! Armenian lavash is sold in the shape of a rectangle or oval. If you bought rectangular pita bread, no additional preparation is required. It is better to cut an oval lavash flatbread on both sides, cutting off the rounded edges, the result will be a rectangular flatbread.
We lay out a sheet of pita bread on the table, grease its surface with soft processed cheese, leaving 1-2 cm from one edge. Distribute the egg mixture with herbs on top of the cheese.
Advice! If there is no soft processed cheese in the refrigerator, but there are cheese cubes, then you can grate them on a fine grater, mix with the egg mixture and grease the pita bread with this mixture.
Grate the crab sticks or finely chop them. Sprinkle them over the filling on the pita bread. We wrap the pita bread tightly with a roll, starting to wrap on the side on which we did not retreat from the edge. We need this strip of pita bread without filling so that when folding the filling does not protrude out.
Place the roll in a bag or wrap it in film. Keep in the refrigerator for about an hour. Before serving, cut into pieces about 1 cm thick and place the resulting roll circles on a plate.
Lavash with crab sticks and cucumbers
The roll with cucumbers and crab sticks turns out delicious; the cucumber gives the appetizer a refreshing taste.
- 1 sheet of pita bread;
- 2-3 tablespoons of mayonnaise;
- 0.5 bunch of lettuce;
- 200 gr. crab sticks;
- 2 eggs;
- 1 fresh cucumber.
Hard-boil the eggs in advance so they have time to cool. We wash the lettuce leaves and fresh cucumber. Let the crab sticks thaw if they are frozen.
Lubricate the lavash sheet with mayonnaise, leave a 1-2 cm wide strip without filling on one edge. Then lay the lettuce sheets overlapping on one side of the lavash to form a dense strip.
Peel the boiled eggs and grate them. Place the eggs in a strip next to the lettuce leaves. Carefully unroll the crab sticks to form thin layers. Place them next to the eggs. Cucumbers need to be cut into very thin strips lengthwise; it is best to do this with a vegetable peeler so that the thickness of the strip is about 1 mm. Place the cucumbers in a strip next to the crab sticks. Now carefully wrap our pita bread into a tight roll. We start wrapping from the side where the lettuce leaves are located.
Wrap the roll in a bag and put it in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours. Cut the finished roll into pieces 2-3 cm wide and place them on a plate.
Lavash roll with Korean carrots and curd cheese
Another appetizer option is a lavash roll with crab sticks and Korean carrots; we will prepare it with curd cheese.
- 2 sheets of pita bread;
- 150 gr. Korean carrots;
- 200 gr. crab sticks;
- 150 gr. curd cheese.
Spread a sheet of lavash, grease it with curd cheese, apply the cheese in a thin layer, using half the cheese.
Advice! You can take regular cottage cheese, or you can use a product with various additives. For example, cottage cheese with shrimp flavor.
Carefully unroll the crab sticks and carefully place them on the surface of the sheet, trying to ensure that they completely cover the entire area. We grease the laid out crab sticks with the remaining cheese and cover them with a second sheet of pita bread.
Place Korean carrots on the surface of the second sheet, distributing them evenly. We roll up our “two-story” structure very tightly into a roll. Wrap the roll in cling film and put it in the refrigerator. To make it more convenient, you can immediately cut the roll in half, and then put it in a bag or wrap it in film.
Keep the roll in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours. Then remove, unfold and cut into pieces 2-3 cm wide.
Original recipe with cheese and rice
This is an original version of the appetizer; the filling for the roll is prepared with rice, eggs, crab sticks and feta cheese.
- 1 sheet of pita bread;
- 100 gr. crab sticks;
- 50 gr. feta cheese;
- 2 eggs;
- 100 gr. boiled rice;
- 3-4 tablespoons of fat sour cream;
- 1 teaspoon mustard (optional);
- salt and pepper to taste.
Grate the crab sticks or cut them very finely. Boil the rice and eggs in advance; by the time the dish is prepared, the food must be completely cool. Three eggs on a grater. Mix eggs with rice and chopsticks.
We grate the cheese, wash the dill, shake off any drops of moisture, dry it and finely chop it. Mix dill with feta cheese and sour cream, add mustard and pepper if desired. If the cheese is unsalted, you can add salt to taste. Mix everything well.
Lubricate the lavash sheet with the prepared mixture. Then pour crab sticks with rice and eggs in an even layer. Roll the pita bread into a roll. Wrap the roll in cling film or put it in a bag and keep it in the refrigerator for about an hour. Serve by cutting into pieces.
Lavash roll with crab sticks and corn
The roll, the filling of which is prepared with corn, looks elegant. This appetizer option will especially appeal to those who love traditional crab stick salad.
- 1 sheet of pita bread;
- 200 gr. crab sticks;
- 100 gr. canned corn;
- 4 eggs;
- 150 gr. fresh cucumbers;
- 100 gr. mayonnaise.
Boil the eggs hard, cool and peel. Chop the eggs into small cubes, cut the cucumber and crab sticks into the same cubes.
Lay out a sheet of lavash and grease it with mayonnaise. Then we lay out the crab sticks in an even layer, then distribute the corn, of course, without liquid. Place fresh cucumber cubes and boiled eggs on top. Roll the pita bread very tightly into a roll. Wrap it in cling film and put it in the refrigerator for 1 hour. Cut the finished roll into pieces at least 4 cm wide; if you cut it into narrow pieces, the filling will fall out.
Appetizer with salmon and greens
A more festive version of the appetizer can be prepared with salmon and herbs, it will turn out tasty and beautiful.
- 3 sheets of thin pita bread;
- 100 gr. crab sticks;
- 200 gr. lightly salted salmon or other red fish;
- 1 bunch of lettuce;
- 0.5 pods of bell pepper;
- 150 gr. soft processed cheese;
- 2-3 tablespoons of mayonnaise;
- dry ground garlic to taste.
Mix processed cheese with dry ground garlic. You can also add fresh garlic to the cheese, which must first be peeled, chopped and crushed.
We cut the lavash sheets so that we get three identical rectangles. Wash the salad and dry it well. Cut the bell pepper into very thin strips. We cut the crab sticks in the same way. If you don’t have time to bother with slicing, grate the sticks.
Lay out one sheet of pita bread, grease it with half the cheese. Then evenly arrange the bell pepper strips and crab sticks.
Cover with a second sheet of pita bread, grease it with mayonnaise and cover with lettuce leaves. Cover with the third sheet, coat with the second part of the cheese. Lay out the red fish, cut into very thin slices.
Wrap the pita bread into a tight roll. We put it in a bag or wrap it in foil and place it in the refrigerator for a couple of hours. Before serving, cut into pieces.
Fried pita rolls
If you prefer hot appetizers to cold ones, make a fried crab stick roll.
- 2 sheets of pita bread;
- 200 gr. crab sticks;
- 2 eggs;
- 1 bunch of greens;
- 1 tablespoon flour;
- 1 clove of garlic;
- 200 gr. curd or soft processed cheese;
- salt to taste;
- vegetable oil for frying.
We will prepare not one big roll, but many small rolls. To do this, cut the sheets of pita bread into equal squares, choosing the size of the squares yourself. You can make small rolls, literally “for two bites,” or you can make larger rolls.
Chop the garlic and mix with the cheese. Finely chop the crab sticks and do the same with the herbs. Beat raw eggs with salt and flour.
Grease a square of pita bread with cheese and garlic, then add some crab sticks and herbs. Roll the squares into tight rolls.
Dip the prepared rolls into the egg mixture and place in a frying pan with heated vegetable oil, fry on all sides until golden brown. These rolls are best served immediately after cooking, but they are also quite tasty cold.
Roll with crab sticks, baked in the oven
Another option for a hot appetizer is a roll with crab sticks, baked in the oven.
- 1 sheet of thin pita bread;
- 5 eggs;
- 200 gr. crab sticks;
- 1 can (160-180 g) of natural canned fish with added oil (tuna, mackerel, sardines);
- 1 bunch of dill;
- mayonnaise to taste.
Set four eggs to boil hard. When they are cooked, cool and peel them. Without defrosting, grate the crab sticks on a fine grater. If the sticks are chilled, then they are grated poorly, then they can be chopped very finely with a knife.
We also grate the boiled eggs. Open a can of canned fish, remove them from the filling and mash them with a fork, removing large bones if you find them. You can grind pieces of canned fish in a blender.
Mix chopped fish with eggs and crab sticks, season this mass with mayonnaise. There is no need to put a lot of mayonnaise, we just need to ensure that the filling is not dry.
Wash the dill thoroughly and finely chop it, add the greens to the rest of the filling ingredients and mix well. We lay out a sheet of pita bread, apply the prepared filling on it in an even layer, departing from one edge about 1 -1.5 cm. Roll the pita bread into a tight roll, starting from the edge greased with the filling.
Beat one egg, which we still have raw, adding salt and pepper. Lubricate the free edge of the pita bread from the inside so that it sticks better to the main part. Then transfer the roll to a baking sheet lined with parchment. Brush the top with egg. Bake at 200 degrees for about 15-20 minutes. During the baking process, you can brush the roll with egg 1-2 more times to form a beautiful crust.

Today I decided to dedicate an article to a snack that can be made from simple, affordable products, but this does not prevent it from being popular and loved. I'm talking about the pita roll with crab sticks. Taking these two products as a basis and adding other ingredients, you can get a snack with a new taste every time, which, you see, is tempting.
A thin flatbread made from wheat dough has a neutral taste, which allows you to combine it with a variety of fillings, for example, they turn out very tasty.
The same can be said about chopsticks. It's no secret that their main ingredient is surimi - ground white ocean fish fillet. But, having other components, they do not have a distinct fishy taste, and a pleasant crab flavor goes well with many foods.
By the way, when buying a semi-finished product, be sure to look at the composition; surimi must be there. Otherwise, you'll be buying a flavored mixture of soy, egg whites and starch without any fish in it.
The rest of the products can be very different, and you will see this by reading the recipes below.

✅Crab roll with fresh cucumber, egg and melted cheese
Ingredients
- 1 sheet of thin pita bread;
- 100 g crab sticks;
- 1 hard-boiled egg;
- 100 g fresh cucumbers;
- 50 g soft processed cheese, type “Yantar”;
- salt to taste.
How to cook
We keep the frozen crab sticks for 5-10 minutes at room temperature, and then, after removing the packaging, grate them onto a coarse grater. We peel the egg and also grate it on a coarse grater.
For this salad, we choose small cucumbers with underdeveloped seeds and a dense interior. Wash and dry the cucumbers. Having cut off a piece from the side of the tail, we try it. If the cucumber is bitter, remove the skin. Grate the cucumber on a coarse grater.
Cut a piece of pita bread approximately 25x30 cm in size.
Generously grease the entire sheet with soft melted cheese.
Lay out the crab sticks, distributing them evenly over the entire surface.
Then lay out the grated cucumbers.
Place the grated eggs on the cucumbers, distributing them evenly. We add a little salt to the entire surface.
We twist the roll tightly.
Due to the fact that grated cucumbers immediately begin to release juice, the roll is quickly soaked, and therefore it does not need to be kept in the cold, it can be served immediately. Using a sharp knife, cut the roll into pieces approximately 1.5 cm thick and place on a plate.
✅Rolls with corn, egg and crab sticks
Ingredients
- 1 sheet of thin pita bread;
- 100 g crab sticks;
- 3-4 tablespoons of canned corn;
- 1 hard-boiled egg;
- 100 g fresh cucumbers;
- 50-70 g mayonnaise.
How to cook
First, let's make the filling for the roll. Wash the cucumbers and cut off the ends. If the cucumbers are bitter, remove the skin. Cut the cucumbers into small cubes, approximately 3-5 mm.
Remove the corn from the jar and place it on a sieve to drain the marinade.
We also cut the crab sticks into small cubes, like the cucumber. We peel the eggs and also cut them into small cubes.
Place all prepared ingredients: crab sticks, cucumbers, eggs and corn in a salad bowl. Add mayonnaise and mix. If desired, you can add a little salt. The filling is ready.
Cut a piece of approximately 20x25 cm from a sheet of lavash.
Spread the filling over the entire surface of the sheet, not reaching one edge by about 2 cm.
We even out the filling so that it is the same thickness throughout the entire sheet. Grease the edge of the pita bread without filling with mayonnaise.
Roll the lavash with filling into a tight roll, moving towards the edge without filling.
The filling turns out to be quite moist, so the roll can be served immediately without needing to soak. Cut the roll into pieces 1.5-2 cm thick.

Grate the hard cheese onto a coarse grater. Cut the Korean carrots into short strips - about 2-3 cm. Chop the parsley into small pieces.

Cut crab sticks into small cubes.
Place grated boiled egg on the first sheet of pita bread with mayonnaise. Sprinkle with chopped dill.
Place crab sticks on the second sheet of lavash (also with mayonnaise, as you remember).
We stack the sheets - one on top of the other. We make sure that both the corners and edges match. It doesn’t matter which leaf will be on the bottom - with crab sticks or with an egg, it doesn’t matter.
Roll the sheets of pita bread into a tight roll. And then in this form we pack the pita bread in foil or cling film. After which we will need to put it in the refrigerator for a couple of hours so that the roll is properly soaked.

We place the chopped crab sticks on pita bread with cheese spread, and washed and dried lettuce leaves on top. The filling is placed in the thin pita bread, now we need to roll it into a roll.
Take your time, do it carefully: it is very important that the roll turns out tight - this way the filling will not fall out of it, and it will be well soaked and will not fall apart when slicing. We pack the lavash roll in cling film or foil and put it in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours.
Well, after that you can cut the roll into small rolls.

- 1-2 tbsp. mayonnaise;
- 100 grams of pickled champignons;

How to cook:
Lubricate the surface of the pita bread with mayonnaise. I have a fairly even attitude towards this sauce, but if it is needed to prepare a dish, then I try to make mayonnaise myself. It's quite simple, but it turns out much tastier than store-bought mayonnaise.
Cut crab sticks into small cubes. And put it on pita bread with mayonnaise.
We do the same with pickled mushrooms - cut them into small cubes and place them on the crab sticks.
Wash the lettuce leaves, dry them and place them on top of the crab sticks with mushrooms. The number of leaves depends on their size - we need them to cover the entire pita bread if possible.
We tightly roll the crab roll from the pita bread and pack it in cling film or foil. And then put it in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours to soak.
Before serving, cut the roll into round pieces at least 1 cm thick.

Place chopped crab sticks on top. Both the layer of sour cream with feta cheese and the layer of crab sticks should completely cover the surface of the pita bread.

✅Delicious filling with mushrooms and melted cheese
Ingredients:
- Thin pita bread 1 pc.
- Crab sticks 100 gr.
- Marinated champignons 100 gr
- Processed cheese 100 gr
- Garlic 1-2 cloves
- Parsley and dill
- Mayonnaise 50 gr.
How to cook:
Crab sticks must first be thawed and chopped in a way convenient for you. I most often use a blender with a bowl, but a small amount can be chopped with a knife.
Grate the processed cheese onto a fine grater.
Pass the garlic through a press and mix with mayonnaise in a separate bowl.
We take the marinated champignons out of the brine and try to cut them into slices.
Wash the parsley and dill and chop finely.
Unroll a sheet of pita bread on the table, spread it with mayonnaise-garlic mixture, and sprinkle with herbs.
Distribute mushrooms and crab sticks evenly on top.
Lastly, add the grated processed cheese. You can add a little more mayonnaise to make the roll juicy.
We roll our lavash with filling into a tight roll.
Wrap it in cling film and put it in the refrigerator for 40-60 minutes to “brew and soak.”
Before serving, cut the lavash roll into portioned pieces, 3-4 cm thick.
Ingredients:
- 3 sheets of thin pita bread;
- 100 g crab sticks;
- 50 g hard cheese;
- 1 egg;
- 1 small bunch of dill;
- 2-3 medium sized cloves of garlic;
- 4-5 tbsp. mayonnaise.
How to cook:
We will have 3 layers - each sheet of lavash has its own filling. The first is crab sticks, mayonnaise and garlic. Finely chop the crab sticks, pass the garlic through a press. Mix the sticks and garlic with mayonnaise - you will need about 1 tablespoon.
Place the crab sticks on the pita bread and distribute it so that there are no gaps or lumps.
Now let's work on the second layer. Boil the egg hard, peel and grate on a medium grater. Three hard cheeses, too, on a medium grater. Add mayonnaise, salt, black pepper to taste and mix. As in the case of the first layer, the mass should not be too thick or very liquid. To achieve the desired consistency, add mayonnaise in small portions so that you can stop in time. It took me a little less than 2 tablespoons.
Spread the cheese-egg mixture on the second sheet of pita bread and place it on the first sheet, with crab-garlic filling.
And now it’s the turn of the third and final layer. For it, finely chop the dill and mix with 2 tablespoons of mayonnaise.
We put mayonnaise with dill on the pita bread and put it on the first 2 - with crab sticks and an egg with cheese.
We check that the corners of all three sheets of pita bread match and roll them into a roll along the short side. Thus, we will get a roll that is not very long, but quite large in diameter.
Wrap a roll of thin pita bread with crab sticks in foil (or cling film) and put it in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours to soak.
Then take out the roll and cut it into portions 1.5-2 cm wide.

Preparation:
Three processed cheeses on a medium or coarse grater.
Also grate three crab sticks on a medium or coarse grater.
Finely chop the dill.
Combine processed cheese, crab sticks, and dill in a salad bowl. Add garlic, passed through a press, and mayonnaise.
Mix. The result is a homogeneous mass, very tasty, by the way.
Cut the tomato into small cubes. At the same time, we immediately separate the middle with the seeds - it is quite liquid, and it is better not to use it for this recipe so that the lavash roll does not turn out too wet.
Spread a mixture of crab sticks, processed cheese and dill with garlic on a sheet of lavash.
Place tomato cubes on top.
And now we roll the pita bread into a tight roll. We take our time, do everything carefully so that the roll turns out even.
Then we pack the roll in cling film and leave it in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours.
Before serving, cut the roll into pieces up to 2 cm thick.
