Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 oz Cream cheese, softened
- 6 oz Crab meat (lump or imitation), finely chopped
- 2 pieces Green onions, finely chopped
- 1 tsp Soy sauce
- 0.5 tsp Garlic powder
- 24 pieces Wonton wrappers
- 4 cups Vegetable oil (for frying)
- 1 cup Fresh pineapple, finely diced
- 0.25 cup Sweet chili sauce
- 1 tsp Soy sauce (for dipping sauce)
- 1 tbsp Lime juice
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese, crab meat, green onions, soy sauce, and garlic powder. Mix until well combined and creamy.
Place a wonton wrapper on a clean, dry surface. Add about 1 teaspoon of the crab mixture to the center of the wonton.
Brush the edges of the wonton wrapper lightly with water, then fold the wrapper diagonally to form a triangle. Press the edges to seal, ensuring no air is trapped inside. Optionally, pinch the two longer edges together to create a more decorative shape. Repeat with the remaining wonton wrappers and filling.
Heat vegetable oil in a deep skillet or fryer to 350°F (175°C). Carefully place a few wontons in the oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for 2-3 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Remove using a slotted spoon and place on a paper towel-lined plate. Repeat with the remaining wontons.
To make the dipping sauce, combine the diced pineapple, sweet chili sauce, soy sauce, and lime juice in a small bowl. Mix until well combined.
Serve the crab rangoons warm with the pineapple chile dipping sauce on the side.
