CRAB RANGOON

Steps:

• Place the crab meat, cream cheese, carrots, celery, garlic powder, worcestershire sauce and salt in a bowl and mix together to form the filling for crab rangoon.
• To wrap crab rangoon, take a square wonton wrapper and place two teaspoons filling in the center. Brush the edges with whisked egg and bring opposite ends of both sides together to form a pocket shape. Repeat till all the filling is consumed. While making one piece, make sure the other wrappers are covered with a damp cloth or they'll dry out.
• Heat a skillet of 4 inches oil to 350 degrees and fry the crab rangoons, a few at a time, till golden brown. This should take 3-4 minutes.
• Serve hot with a sweet and spicy dipping sauce.
