Description

Crispy, creamy crab rangoon filled with a delicious blend of cream cheese and imitation crab, perfect for parties or snacks.


Ingredients

  • 16 oz cream cheese (softened)
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 oz imitation crab (diced)
  • 12 oz wonton wraps
  • 2 cups oil for frying
  • 2 sprigs scallions (sliced)


Instructions

  1. Combine the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar in a large mixing bowl until smooth.
  2. Fold in the diced imitation crab and sliced scallions gently.
  3. Take a wonton wrapper and place about a teaspoon of the filling in the center. Wet the edges with water to seal and fold the wrapper, pinching the edges.
  4. Heat oil in a deep frying pan to about 350°F.
  5. Fry the crab rangoon in small batches until golden brown, about 3–4 minutes.
  6. Remove and drain excess oil on a paper towel.

Notes

Monitor oil temperature closely to avoid undercooking or greasy bites. Fry in small batches for best results.
