These things are soooo addictive! Hubby says they're better than the ones at our favorite Chinese restaurant, and I have to agree with him.

How To Make crab rangoon by t
-
Step 1In a medium mixing bowl, use a fork to combine cream cheese, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, and garlic powder.
-
Step 2When well combined, add green onion and crab. Mix well. (Note: You may omit the imitation crab if you prefer.)
-
Step 3Working with 3 or 4 at a time, place wrappers on your work surface and add one teaspoon of the cream cheese mixture to the center of the wrapper.
-
Step 4Moisten the edges of the wrappers with beaten egg. Fold into triangles or bundles, making sure edges are sealed. Tip: Triangles are easier and require less oil for frying. Repeat until cream cheese is gone (or assemble half of the batch and save the rest for the next day).
-
Step 5Fill a deep, heavy pot or frying pan with enough oil to cover the wontons. Bring the temperature to 325-340 degrees F.
-
Step 6Working in batches, carefully place several wontons in hot oil, frying and turning until light golden brown - about 2 minutes.
-
Step 7Use a slotted spoon or "spider" to remove to paper towels. Repeat with the remainder.
-
Step 8Serve with your choice of dipping sauces. I like plain old soy sauce, and my husband likes duck sauce or sweet and sour.
