And last but not least, home made fried crab rangoons. Oh. My. God. I love crab rangoons. Whoever thought of wrapping crab and cream cheese in a pastry dough and frying it invented heaven. I need to run to the corner Chinese restaurant and get a container of sweet and sour sauce for dipping. I do not have the stuff to make it. And you simply can't have crab rangoons without sweet and sour sauce.
Crab Rangoons
From Everyday Home Cook
Ingredients:
- 1 12 oz package imitation crab meat (leg or flake style), chopped
- 1 8 oz package cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
- 2 green onions, chopped
- wonton wrappers
Directions:
Get your fryer or dutch oven going to about 350°. In a bowl, combine everything except the wonton wrappers and mix well.
Place a small amount of the filling (about 1 to 2 tablespoons) in the center of a wonton wrapper.
Fold in half to make a triangle, using water to seal the edges.
Take your sealed rangoons to your dutch oven or fryer, working in batches to not over crowd the oil.
Let drain on paper towels after they have fried to a light golden brown. Serve immediately.
Mangia!
