California Roll Deviled Eggs - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    12 hard-cooked eggs
    Filling
    1/2 ripe avocado
    3 tablespoons mayonnaise
    1 tablespoon purchased wasabi paste (or 1 tablespoon wasabi powder mixed with 1 tablespoon water)
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    Topping
    2 ounces alaska king crab meat or 1/3-1/2 cup alaska king crab meat
    1 English cucumber, sliced into 24 fans (See Tip in Instruction #4)
    Nori Komi Furikake (sesame seed-seaweed sprinkle)
    2 tablespoons tobiko (flying fish roe)
Preparation
    Halve the eggs lengthwise and transfer the yolks to a small bowl. Set the egg white halves on a platter.
    In a mixing bowl, mash the avocado well with a fork, then add the yolks and mash to a smooth consistency. Add the mayonnaise, wasabi paste, and salt, and mix until smooth. Spoon the mixture into a pastry bag fitted with a plain or large star tip, then pipe the mixture evenly into the egg white halves. Alternatively, fill the eggs with a spoon, dividing the filling evenly.
    Top each egg half with a little crabmeat, a cucumber fan, a sprinkle of furikake and about 1/4 teaspoon tobiko.
    Tip: To make tiny cucumber fans, quarter a 4-inch piece of English cucumber lengthwise. Then cut each quarter into 18 thin slices -- the goal is to get 3 tiny slices per \"fan.\".
