Cherkas puts what he calls “a Dr. Seussian” twist on sushi.

1 lb. crabmeat
3 oz. shredded pomelo
2 oz. plain yogurt
11/2tsp. lemon juice
1 tbsp. sherry vinegar
1/ 4cup virgin olive oil
1/ 2avocado

Cook crab, cool, and pick meat. Mix all ingredients except avocado for filling. Slice avocado, then fan it out in the shape of a snail shell. Place between two layers of cling film, and mash slightly to create a marbled circle of avocado. Removing one layer of cling film, place crab mix in the center and fold softly into a ball,  twisting the cling film tight at the top. Place in ice water for 15 minutes to firm. Unwrap the package,  brush the sphere with vinaigrette,  and stud with popped rice.
