Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 24 pieces Wonton wrappers
- 200 grams Crab meat (lump or canned, drained and flaked)
- 115 grams Cream cheese (softened)
- 2 stalks Green onions (finely chopped)
- 1 teaspoon Soy sauce
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 piece Egg (beaten, for sealing)
- 4 cups Oil (for frying)
Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the crab meat, softened cream cheese, chopped green onions, soy sauce, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
Place a wonton wrapper on a clean surface, with one corner pointing toward you (forming a diamond shape).
Spoon about 1 teaspoon of the crab mixture into the center of the wrapper.
Brush the edges of the wonton wrapper with the beaten egg to help seal.
Fold the wrapper in half diagonally to form a triangle, pressing the edges firmly to seal. Ensure there are no air pockets inside.
Optionally, bring the two bottom corners of the triangle together and pinch to form a 'purse' shape, sealing with a bit more egg wash if needed.
Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling until all wontons are assembled.
In a deep skillet or pot, heat the oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
Carefully lower a few wontons into the hot oil, frying in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry for 2–3 minutes per batch, or until golden brown on all sides.
Using a slotted spoon, remove the fried wontons and drain them on paper towels.
Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce, such as sweet chili sauce or soy sauce.
