Description
A delicious appetizer featuring creamy crab meat and rich cream cheese, wrapped in crispy wontons.
Ingredients
Scale
- 6 ounces crab meat (4 ounces drained)
- 8 ounces cream cheese (softened)
- 2 tablespoons green onions (sliced)
- 12 ounces wonton wrappers
- Vegetable oil (for frying)
- ½ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- ½ teaspoon roasted garlic paste
- ½ teaspoon cornstarch mixed with 2 to 3 tablespoons of water (slurry)
- Sweet Thai chili sauce or sweet and sour sauce (for dipping)
Instructions
- Prepare the filling by mixing drained crab meat, cream cheese, green onions, Worcestershire sauce, and garlic paste until smooth.
- Place about ½ to 1 teaspoon of filling on each wonton wrapper. Dab cornstarch slurry on an edge and fold to seal tightly.
- Heat oil in a deep fryer or pot to 375°F. Fry the rangoons in batches until golden brown (about 30 seconds).
- For extra crunch, fry again for another 30 seconds after resting for five minutes.
Notes
Make sure to use fresh crab meat for the best flavor. Seal wonton edges tightly to prevent leaking during frying.
