Ingredients

🦀 8 oz cream cheese, softened

🦀 8 oz crab meat (fresh or canned) (or fake crab), chopped

🌿 2 green onions, finely chopped

🧂 1 teaspoon garlic powder

🌶️ 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

🍋 1 teaspoon lemon juice

🥟 30 wonton wrappers

🥚 1 egg, beaten

🥢 Oil for frying

🧂 Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

1- Prepare the Filling:

• In a medium-sized bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, chopped crab meat, green onions, garlic powder, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.

• Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.

2- Fill the Wontons:

• Place a wonton wrapper flat on a clean surface.

• Spoon about 1 teaspoon of the crab mixture into the center of the wrapper.

• Brush the edges of the wrapper with a beaten egg.

• Fold the wrapper diagonally to form a triangle, pressing the edges to seal.

• For a more decorative look, bring the two opposite corners of the triangle together and seal with a little more egg.

• Repeat with remaining wrappers.

3- Fry the Crab Rangoon:

• Heat oil in a deep skillet or fryer to 350°F (175°C).

• Gently place several rangoons into the hot oil, being careful not to overcrowd the pan.

• Fry for 2-3 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.

• Use a slotted spoon to remove them from the oil and drain on paper towels.

4- Serve:

• Arrange the crispy crab rangoons on a platter and serve warm with sweet and sour sauce or sweet chili sauce for dipping.
