You want to end up with a fat Cuban cigar.

3) Cut across the rolled wrap diagonally to make 3 pieces.

Lay the wrap in front of you and put the crabmeat in a line horizontally 2cm/about an inch up from the bottom of the wrap. Take the avocado half still with skin and scoop out the flesh in half teaspoonful curls, laying these on top of the line of crabmeat. Sprinkle over the lettuce in a neat line also, and then spritz with the lemon juice. Roll up tightly from the bottom, to form a fat cigar and then Technique: Slicing Cutting a larger piece of food into even pieces or strips.
