Ingredients
  

For the Filling

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened Let it soften to avoid lumps.
  • 1 cup crab meat, flaked (fresh or imitation) Use real crab for best flavor.
  • 2 ea green onions, chopped
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp soy sauce
  • 1 pkg wonton wrappers Store-bought.

For Frying

  • 2 cups oil For deep frying.

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Beat the softened cream cheese in a bowl until fluffy.
  • Chop the crab meat and mix it into the cream cheese along with green onions, garlic powder, and soy sauce.
  • Lay out wonton wrappers and place a teaspoon of filling in the center of each.
  • Wet the edges of the wrappers and pinch the four corners together to form a star shape.

Cooking

  • Heat oil in a deep skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Fry the rangoons in batches for about 2 minutes, or until golden brown.
  • Remove and drain on paper towels before serving.

Notes

Don't overstuff the rangoons to prevent leakage. You can freeze them before frying. Bake instead of frying for a healthier option, but they won’t be as crispy.
