EASY CRAB RANGOON

Steps:

• In a medium mixing bowl, combine cream cheese, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, and powdered sugar.
• Mix in crab meat.
• Place a tablespoon of crab mixture in the middle of each wonton wrapper.
• Brush a small amount of water on all four edges of the wonton wrapper. Pinch corners together, sealing them completely.
• Pour oil in a deep skillet or pan. Heat oil to 350 degrees.
• Fry each piece for about 1-2 minutes or until lightly golden.
• Place a wire rack over a layer of paper towels. After they are done frying, place them on the wire rack and allow them to cool.
• Serve with a sweet and sour sauce.

CRAB RANGOON

Steps:

• Drain crab meat well. In a small mixing bowl stir together drained crab meat, cream cheese, green onions, Worchestire sauce, and garlic paste.
• Working with a few wonton wrappers at a time, lay them out and scoop about 1/2 to 1 teaspoon of crab mixture just off center on the wrapper. The wrappers dry out so keep the remaining wrappers protected in a plastic bag or plastic wrap.
• Place a little dab of the cornstarch slurry on the corner closest to the filling. Fold the corner over the filling and press it down onto the wrapper on the other side of the filling. Press the adjacent edges down around the filling as well.
• Fold the two sides in toward the center, dabbing a bit more slurry to help seal the edges, forming an "open envelope" shape.
• Moisten the top "flap of the envelope" and fold it down, pressing gently to seal the whole packet together. Set aside, covered loosely with a piece of plastic wrap.
• Continue filling and folding the wonton wrappers until you have used all of the filling.
• Clip a deep fry or candy thermometer on to a 2 Quart stockpot or Dutch oven. Fill with frying oil and heat on high until oil temperature reaches 375°F.
• Drop crab rangoon packets into the oil, 5 to 6 at a time. They will sink to the bottom of the pot and should quickly form bubbles around them. Within about 30 seconds, the rangoons will pop up to the top of the oil and will become lightly browned and bubbly. Use a slotted spoon to remove the rangoons from the oil. Place them onto a plate lined with paper towels and continue frying the remaining rangoons.
• To make the rangoons extra crispy and delicious, you will fry them a second time just as you did the first. After the fried rangoons have set for about five minutes, place 5 to 6 at a time back into the frying oil. Fry for about 30 seconds until rangoons are golden brown. Remove to a separate plate lined with paper towels.
• Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce.
