NEW ORLEANS STUFFED CRAB EGGROLL
I love this time of year for the crabs. As a kid my mom would always make stuffed crabs, well crabmeat stuffing baked on individual aluminum crab shaped tins that we washed after each time we used them.

Steps:
- 1. Melt butter in a skillet and sauté onions, celery, bell pepper, and garlic. Sprinkle with salt to season.
- 2. Add crabmeat, Worcestershire sauce, cayenne, and salt. Cover over low heat for 10 minutes
- 3. Remove crab mixture from skillet and add to a large mixing bowl.
- 4. Add egg, milk, and half cup of bread crumbs to crab mixture. Mix thoroughly. Add the some of the other half cup of bread crumbs if needed. I don't like to much bread in mine, it overpowers the crab. However you do want the mixture to hold together, use your judgment.
- 5. Following the instructions on wonton wrapper package, place a tablespoon (from your utensil drawer) of mixture on wonton wrapper. Fold up wrapper to make eggroll as shown on package directions.
- 6. Heat oil in a heavy pot, enough oil to submerge eggrolls. Place about 6 eggrolls in the oil. They will cook quickly, so keep an eye. Once they get golden brown, remove from oil and drain on paper towels.

Steps:
- In a large bowl, mix together the cream cheese, a pinch of salt, soy sauce, and sugar until well combined. Gently fold in the crab meat and scallions until evenly incorporated.
- Place a wonton wrapper on a clean surface in a diamond orientation. Brush the edges of the wrapper with the beaten egg. Scoop 3 tablespoons of the crab filling onto the center of the wrapper and flatten slightly with a spoon. Fold the sides of the wrapper inwards to cover the filling, then roll the wonton up, starting from the bottom and working upward to seal. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
- Fill a large pot halfway with peanut oil. Heat over medium-high heat until the temperature reaches 375˚F (190˚C). Set a wire rack over a baking sheet.
- Working 3-4 at a time, fry the egg rolls in the hot oil until the wrappers are puffed and golden, about 2 minutes, flipping halfway to ensure even color. Transfer to the wire rack and sprinkle with salt.
- Serve the egg rolls with your favorite dipping sauce, such as sweet and sour sauce.
- Enjoy!
BAKED CRAB RANGOON WITH THAI GINGER-LIME DIPPING SAUCE
This recipe is just a bit different than the many other Baked Crab Rangoon appetizers already posted to the Recipezaar database, and I sure hope you enjoy this dish as much as we do. You can use the Thai Ginger-Lime Dipping Sauce included with this recipe, or you can use your own favorite Asian dippping sauce if you like. Even something as simple as a sweet and sour sauce, Asian plum sauce, or a hot sweet mustard also work well as a dipping sauce for these Baked Crab Rangoons.

Steps:
- Prehat the oven to 350°. Lightly spray the bottom of the cups of a muffin tin with a non-stick cooking spray.
- FILLING - Add the crab meat, cream cheese, chopped green onion, minced onion, teriyaki sauce and white pepper to a small mixing bowl and mix until well blended.
- Place the wonton wrappers on a flat surface. Add spoonfuls of the crab filling to the center of each wonton wrapper. Take two opposite tips of a wonton wrapper, and bring the tips to meet over the center of the filling. Take the other two opposite tips of the wonton wrapper and bring them to the center. Gently pinch the four tips together. Repeat with remaining wonton wrappers.
