Ingredients

Scale

8 oz cream cheese, softened
½ cup imitation crab meat (or real crab meat), finely chopped
2 tbsp green onions, chopped
1 tbsp soy sauce
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
1 package wonton wrappers
1 egg, beaten (for sealing)
Vegetable oil (for frying)

Instructions

1️⃣ Prepare the filling: In a bowl, combine the cream cheese, chopped crab meat, green onions, soy sauce, garlic powder, and Worcestershire sauce. Mix well until everything is fully incorporated into a creamy filling.

2️⃣ Assemble the wontons: Place a wonton wrapper on a flat surface. Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the crab mixture into the center of the wrapper.

3️⃣ Seal the wontons: Dip your finger in the beaten egg and run it along the edges of the wonton wrapper. Fold the wrapper over the filling to form a triangle or pouch shape, pressing the edges tightly together to seal.

4️⃣ Heat the oil: In a deep pan or fryer, heat vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C). You’ll need enough oil to submerge the wontons for frying.

5️⃣ Fry the Crab Rangoon: Carefully drop the crab rangoon into the hot oil, a few at a time. Fry for 2-3 minutes, or until the wontons are golden brown and crispy on all sides.

6️⃣ Drain excess oil: Remove the crab rangoon from the oil using a slotted spoon and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.

7️⃣ Serve and enjoy: Serve the crab rangoon warm with sweet and sour sauce or soy sauce for dipping. They’re perfect for parties or as a delicious appetizer!

Notes

For an even crispier texture, you can freeze the assembled crab rangoon for about 20 minutes before frying.
You can also use fresh crab meat if you prefer, although imitation crab meat is more common in this dish.
Make sure not to overcrowd the oil while frying to ensure that the crab rangoon cook evenly.
