Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 ounces Cream cheese
- 6 ounces Imitation crab meat (or real crab meat, finely chopped)
- 2 stalks Green onions, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon Soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 24 pieces Wonton wrappers
- 4 cups Vegetable oil (for frying)
- 2 tablespoons Water
- optional Sweet and sour sauce or soy sauce (for dipping)
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, chopped imitation crab meat (or real crab), green onions, soy sauce, and garlic powder. Mix until well combined.
Lay a wonton wrapper on a clean, flat surface. Place about 1 teaspoon of the crab and cream cheese filling in the center of the wrapper.
Dip your finger in the water and run it along all four edges of the wonton wrapper to moisten.
Fold the wrapper in half diagonally to form a triangle and press the edges firmly to seal, ensuring no air remains inside. Alternatively, bring all four corners together in the center to create a pouch-like shape, pinching to seal.
Repeat the process with the remaining wrappers and filling.
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep skillet or pot to 350°F (175°C). You can use a thermometer to check the temperature.
Carefully add a few wontons at a time to the hot oil, avoiding overcrowding. Fry each batch for 2-3 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Use a slotted spoon to remove the wontons from the oil and transfer them to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
Repeat until all wontons are fried.
Serve warm with sweet and sour sauce or soy sauce for dipping, and enjoy!
