Best of all, these crowd-pleasers are baked and not fried, so you don't have to feel guilty about enjoying them. Pick over the crab to remove pieces of shell. Seal edges with beaten egg. (Make sure you squeeze out all the air or they'll pop open during frying and make a real mess)! Crab Rangoon is one of the most popular Chinese food appetizers on the menu in any of a million local Chinese Food takeout spots, second perhaps to egg rolls.
Instructions to make Crab Rangoon:
- Finely chop crab meat into 1/8 inch peices
- Finely chop green onion
- Combine crab, green onion, and cream cheese in a 1qt zipper bag, squeeze until well combined and chill. Chilling the filling well will provide a firmer consistancy and allow you to form the wontons far easier.
- Heat at least 3 inches of oil in a heavy pot or deep fryer to 325 degrees
- Place a single wonton wrapper in the palm of one hand and place 3/4 teaspoon of the cream cheese mixture in the middle.
- Dip a finger into the water and wet the edge of the wonton wrapper on the side with the filling about 1/2 inch in the middle of each side. Do not wet the corners!
- Carefully bring all four wet spots of the wrapper together around the filling until they meet and press until they seal. The four corners should stand up and form four points that have an open channel down to the filling. These channels are important as they allow the steam to escape from the filling while frying without making the wonton explode.
- After forming, fry in the 325° oil until golden brown, about one to two minutes.
- Serve with the sweet chili sauce for dipping.
