Ingredients
- 8 ounces cream cheese softened
- 8 ounces crab meat
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon soy sauce
- ½ teaspoon of crab seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 green onions sliced, plus more for garnish
- 20 wonton wrappers
- 1 egg beaten
- 3 cups of neutral oil for frying
- Chilli crisp oil for garnish
- Sweet chili sauce for dipping
Preparation
- In a bowl, combine the cream cheese, crabmeat, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, crab seasoning, garlic powder and green onions in a bowl. Stir to combine.
- Place a wonton wrapper on a flat surface and drop about two teaspoons of the crab mixture into the center. I used the smallest scooper I had. Brush the edges of the wonton with the egg to seal.
- Bring two opposite corners together in the middle of the wonton and pinch. Repeat with the other two corners and pinch to form a square package shape.
- Repeat with the remaining wontons and crab mixture until all are filled.
- Heat oil in a deep pan to 350°F.
- Fry about five wontons at a time, turning them as needed to make sure they brown evenly, for about 3-5 minutes.
- Drain the fried wontons on paper towels and repeat the frying process with the remaining wontons.
- Serve immediately with a chili crisp drizzle and a sweet chili dipping sauce. Garnish with more sliced green onions.
Notes:
If you prefer to Air-Fry: Pre-heat an air fryer to 380ºF. Arrange a single layer in the air fryer basket, leaving 1 inch space between each. Lightly coat with cooking spray top and bottom. Air-fry for about four minutes. Check to see if they are evenly golden-brown, and air-fry for one minute more if needed.
If making the pillow shapes proofs difficult. Make them in a triangle shape or get eggroll wrappers and make bigger eggroll ones. Just add more filling and enjoy.
