Description
Golden, crispy, and filled with a creamy blend of crab and cheese, these homemade Crab Rangoons are the ultimate appetizer or snack for any occasion.
Ingredients
Scale
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 6 oz lump crab meat, drained
- 2 green onions, finely chopped
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tsp soy sauce
- 24 wonton wrappers
- Vegetable oil, for frying
Instructions
- Preheat oil in a deep pan over medium heat to 350°F.
- In a mixing bowl, combine cream cheese, crab meat, green onions, garlic powder, Worcestershire sauce, and soy sauce. Mix until smooth.
- Prepare a tray lined with parchment paper and a small bowl of water for sealing wontons.
- Place a teaspoon of filling in the center of each wonton wrapper. Wet the edges with water, fold into a triangle, and seal tightly, pressing out air.
- Fry 4–5 rangoons at a time for 2–3 minutes, turning until golden brown and crispy.
- Remove and drain on paper towels. Let cool slightly before serving.
- Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce.
Notes
- Seal wrappers tightly to prevent filling from leaking during frying.
- Use an air fryer at 370°F for 8 minutes as a lighter option.
- Freeze assembled rangoons and fry directly from frozen when needed.
- Don’t overfill wrappers to avoid bursting while cooking.
