🥘 Ingredients

8 items

• 8 oz Imitation crabmeat
• 8 oz Cream cheese
• 2 stalks Green onions
• 0.5 tsp Garlic powder
• 1 tsp Soy sauce
• 24 pieces Wonton wrappers
• 4 cups Vegetable oil (for frying)

📝 Instructions

15 steps

1. Finely chop the imitation crabmeat and set aside in a medium bowl.

2. Add the cream cheese to the bowl and mix until well combined with the crabmeat.

3. Slice the green onions thinly and mix them into the crab and cream cheese mixture.

4. Add the garlic powder and soy sauce to the mixture and stir until evenly incorporated.

5. Lay out the wonton wrappers on a clean, dry surface.

6. Spoon about 1 teaspoon of the crab mixture onto the center of each wonton wrapper.

7. Dip your finger into the water and moisten the edges of a wonton wrapper.

8. Fold the wonton wrapper diagonally to form a triangle, pressing the edges firmly to seal.

9. Optionally, bring the two bottom corners of the triangle together and seal with a bit of water to create a rangoon shape.

10. Heat vegetable oil in a deep fryer or deep saucepan to 350°F (175°C).

11. Carefully add a few rangoons to the hot oil, avoiding overcrowding the pan.

12. Fry the rangoons for 2-3 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.

13. Use a slotted spoon to remove the rangoons from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.

14. Repeat frying in batches until all rangoons are cooked.

15. Serve immediately with sweet and sour sauce or your favorite dipping sauce.
