CRABBY CREAM CHEESE WONTONS

Wonton wrappers are filled with cream cheese, crab meat (I use imitation, but you can use either), garlic, and onions. You just have to heat them so the cheese is melted hot. Don't overcook. Serve with rice and sweet and sour sauce. Good as an appetizer, or meal.

Time 40m

Yield 15 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

4 cups oil (for deep frying, or you can use non-stick, zero-calorie cooking spray to save on fat and calories)
2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
1 (12 ounce) package imitation crabmeat
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 teaspoons sesame oil
1 tablespoon minced garlic
3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 bunch green onion, finely chopped
1 (14 ounce) package wonton wrappers
2 egg whites
soy sauce (for dipping) or sweet and sour sauce (for dipping)

Steps:

In a medium bowl mix cream cheese, imitation crabmeat, soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic, Worcestershire sauce and green onions.
Place about a teaspoon of the cream cheese mixture in the center of each wonton wrapper.
Put egg whites in a bowl.
Use your fingers or a brush to apply the egg whites over two edges of the wonton wrappers.
Fold into triangles and press to seal edges.
In small batches, deep fry the won tons until golden brown, 2 to 4 minutes.
Drain on paper towels and serve warm.
(Note: to make this healthier I brush the whole wonton with egg white after it's sealed and then I just sauté it with no-calorie nonstick cooking spray).

Tips:

For the best wonton wrappers, use wonton wrappers that are fresh and not frozen. Fresh wonton wrappers are more pliable and easier to work with.
To prevent the wontons from sticking together, make sure to coat them lightly with oil before frying.
Don't overcrowd the pan when frying the wontons. This will cause them to steam instead of fry and they will not be as crispy.
If you don't have a deep fryer, you can shallow fry the wontons in a large skillet. Just make sure to use enough oil so that the wontons are submerged.
Serve the wontons immediately with your favorite dipping sauce. Some popular choices include sweet and sour sauce, soy sauce, or chili sauce.

Conclusion:

Crabby cream cheese wontons are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. With a crispy wonton wrapper and a creamy, flavorful filling, these wontons are sure to be a hit with your friends and family. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy snack or appetizer, give these crab rangoons a try!
