Filling and Wrappers
Method
Preparation and Cooking
- 1
Make the Filling
In a medium mixing bowl, combine cream cheese, crab meat, chopped green onions, garlic powder, soy sauce, salt, and pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are fully incorporated and creamy.
- 2
Prepare Wonton Wrappers
Lay out the wonton wrappers on a clean, flat surface. Keep a small bowl of water nearby.
- 3
Fill the Wrappers
Take a wonton wrapper and place about 1 tablespoon of the crab mixture in the center. Dip your finger in water and moisten the edges of the wrapper. Fold the wrapper over the filling to create a triangle. Seal the edges tightly, pressing out any air.
- 4
Heat the Oil
In a deep frying pan or pot, heat the oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). You can test if the oil is ready by dropping a small piece of wonton wrapper into it; it should bubble immediately.
- 5
Fry the Crab Rangoon
Carefully place the filled wontons in the hot oil, a few at a time, to avoid overcrowding. Fry until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes on each side. Use a slotted spoon to remove them and drain on paper towels.
- 6
Serve
Serve hot with soy sauce or sweet and sour sauce for dipping.
