Crab Rangoon

 

My family loves all things Asian and these are a favorite when we order Chinese food.  My daughter Annie and I decided to try to make these at home and they were really super easy and so delicious!

Ingredients:

• 8 oz package of Cream Cheese, room temperature
• 8 oz of imitation crab, chopped
• 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1/2 teaspoon Sesame oil
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon powdered sugar
• 20-25 Wonton Wrappers
• small bowl of water
• Oil for frying

Preparation:

In a medium bowl mix together cream cheese, Worcestershire sauce, sesame oil and garlic powder until combined well.  Next stir in powdered sugar and combine.  Fold in crab until completely incorporated.  

Place 2 wrappers on a flat surface, put about 1/2 teaspoon of the crab mixture in the center of the wrapper.  Using your finger dip into the bowl of water and wet all four sides of the wrapper.  Pull up two opposite corners of wrapper and stick together.  Then pull up two more corners.  Pinch to close and make sure all sides are sealed.  Once you have 6 completed you can pan fry in about 1/2" of oil, once one side is browned flip and brown opposite side.  Remove when golden brown and let drain on some paper towels.  Serve with any dipping sauce.  We love the Sweet Chili Sauce from Trader Joes.
