Crispy Crab Rangoon Ingredients :
- 3 ounces softened cream cheese
- 2 green onions, finely chopped
- 1/4 cup finely chopped imitation crabmeat
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
- 16 wonton wrappers
- Oil for frying
- Sweet-and-sour sauce
How To Make Crispy Crab Rangoon
In a small bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Stir in the chopped onions, imitation crabmeat, and minced garlic.
Spoon about 1-1/2 teaspoons of the mixture into the center of a wonton wrapper. (Keep the remaining wrappers covered with a damp paper towel until ready to use.) Moisten the edges of the wrapper with water, fold opposite corners over the filling, and press to seal. Repeat with the remaining wrappers.
In an electric skillet, heat 1 inch of oil to 375°F. Fry the wontons in batches until they are golden brown, about 1 minute on each side. Drain them on paper towels. Serve with sweet-and-sour sauce.
