Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams Fresh crab meat (cooked and shredded)
- 120 grams Cream cheese (softened)
- 2 stalks Green onions (finely chopped)
- 1 teaspoon Soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 24 pieces Wonton wrappers
- 1 piece Egg (beaten, for sealing edges)
- 500 milliliters Vegetable oil (for frying)
Instructions
In a mixing bowl, combine the crab meat, softened cream cheese, chopped green onions, soy sauce, and garlic powder. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly distributed.
Lay out the wonton wrappers on a clean surface. Place about 1 teaspoon of the crab mixture in the center of each wrapper.
Brush the edges of the wonton wrapper lightly with the beaten egg to help seal the edges.
Fold the wonton wrapper into a triangle, pressing the edges together firmly to seal the filling inside. Make sure there are no air pockets. You can fold the corners inward for a decorative puff shape, or leave them as triangles.
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep frying pan or pot over medium heat until it reaches 175°C (350°F). Test the oil by dropping a small piece of wonton wrapper into it — if it sizzles and floats, the oil is ready.
Fry the crab puffs in small batches (4-5 at a time) to avoid overcrowding. Cook for 2-3 minutes per batch or until the puffs are golden brown and crispy.
Remove the puffs from the oil using a slotted spoon and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce, such as sweet chili sauce or soy sauce.
