Crab Rangoon Iii Recipes

Steps:

• Mix cream cheese, crab meat, green onions, garlic, soy sauce, fish sauce, Worcestershire sauce, salt, pepper, sesame oil, and cayenne pepper together with a fork until ingredients are blended thoroughly. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until chilled, 1 or 2 hours.
• Keep wonton wrappers moist by covering with a damp paper towel. Place a small bowl of water nearby on the work surface. With a wet fingertip, moisten surface of wonton. Place 1 1/2 teaspoons of crab filling in center of wonton. Fold 2 opposite corners toward each other over the filling but without touching tips together yet. Fold up the other 2 corners. Working gently from the bottom, squeeze out any air bubbles; pinch together the 4 seams from the bottom up to create a modified pyramid (or "warhead") shape. Place on a dry surface. Continue with remaining wontons.
• Heat oil in deep fryer to 350 degrees F. Fry wontons in batches until golden brown and crispy, gently moving them around in the oil with a strainer to brown each surface, about 3 minutes. Let cool about a minute before eating. Serve with the dipping sauce.
• Whisk ketchup, rice vinegar, brown sugar, and sriracha sauce together in a bowl for the dipping sauce.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth. Stir in onions, crab and garlic. , Place about 1-1/2 teaspoons in the center of a wonton wrapper. (Keep remaining wrappers covered with a damp paper towel until ready to use.) Moisten edges with water; fold opposite corners over filling and press to seal. Repeat., In an electric skillet, heat 1 in. of oil to 375°. Fry wontons, in batches, until golden brown, about 1 minute on each side. Drain on paper towels. Serve with sweet-and-sour sauce.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large heavy skillet or deep fryer to 360 degrees F (180 degrees C).
• In a small bowl, mix together cream cheese, soy sauce, ginger, garlic, parsley, cilantro and crabmeat.
• Place 1/2 to 1 teaspoon of the cream cheese mixture into the center of each wonton wrapper. Fold the won ton wrapper over the stuffing to make a triangle or a half moon, depending on the shape of the won ton wrappers you have purchased. Moisten the edges with a little water, and seal. Place prepared won tons under a slightly moist paper towel until ready for frying.
• Add 3 or 4 wontons to the hot oil, and cook until golden brown, turning once. Set aside on paper towels to drain. Repeat until all wontons have been fried. Serve hot.

Steps:

• Press out as much liquid as possible from the crabmeat you are using. Any excess moisture will soak through the wonton skins. In a medium bowl, combine the crab, cream cheese, scallions, tarragon, salt and pepper either with your hands or a stand mixer with a paddle attachment.
• Take a wonton skin, place 1 teaspoon of the filling in the center of each wrapper.
• With a finger dipped in egg, moisten the 2 adjacent sides; fold over the opposing corner to make a triangle. (You have some choices with shape. You can make a purse, tortellini or traditional triangle wontons.)
• Place the completed ones on a tray. Uncooked, rangoons can be wrapped and kept frozen for 1 to 2 weeks and dropped into the fryer frozen.
• Heat oil in a 4- or 5-quart (3.8- or 4.7-L) Dutch oven or pot until the oil reaches 360 degrees F (182 degrees C). Fry in small batches until golden about 2 minutes on each side and drain on a wire rack over a rimmed baking sheet. I like to serve these with sweet chili or plum sauce.

Steps:

• Remove the cream cheese from its packaging, set it in a large bowl and let it soften at room temperature for at least 1 hour.
• Make the dipping sauce, if desired: Stir the ketchup, sugar and rice vinegar in a small saucepan over medium-high heat and bring it just to a boil, whisking until the sugar dissolves. Set aside to cool completely.
• Add the scallions, lemon zest, sugar and salt to the softened cream cheese. Using clean hands, gently flake the crab meat into a separate bowl; pick out any shell fragments. Using a silicone spatula, mix the shredded crab into the cream cheese mixture until evenly incorporated.
• Unwrap the wonton wrappers from their packaging and separate them from one another. (This will speed up the process when filling them.) Stack them loosely and completely cover with a damp paper towel to keep them moist. Place 1 cup water in a nearby bowl.
• Place a wrapper on a flat surface, rotated in a diamond position. Spoon 2 to 3 teaspoons of the filling into its center, using another small spoon to assist scraping it off the teaspoon. Dip your index finger into the water, then use it to moisten the entire edge of the wrapper. To make a simple rangoon, fold the wrapper into a triangle by pulling one corner to its opposite corner, pressing out any air and sealing the wonton shut. To make a star-shaped rangoon, lift the left and right corners underneath between your index fingers and thumbs, and lift them up toward the center, pinching your index fingers and thumbs along the seams to fold each tip as you do it, so that a four-pointed star shape forms. Squeeze out any air, then seal the wrapper along the other two tips so the filling is entirely encased.
• Place the sealed rangoon on a sheet pan or flat surface dusted with flour as you repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling. Freeze them for at least 15 minutes (or up to 2 weeks in an airtight container) before cooking to ensure that they leak less during frying.
• Heat the oil in a large, heavy pot or Dutch oven to 350 degrees. (The temperature will fluctuate when frying, but make sure the oil doesn't smoke or dip below 300 degrees.) Keep the oil over a medium flame or half power on an electric range to help maintain the temperature. Working in batches, fry the rangoons until golden brown and crispy, about 3 to 4 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer them to a paper towel-lined baking sheet.
• Let cool a few minutes before enjoying, as they will be lava-hot out of the fryer. Enjoy with the optional dipping sauce or another sauce of your choice.

Steps:

• Whip together the sour cream, cream cheese and soy sauce and sugar until smooth.
• Fold in remaining ingredients (except wrappers) Heat oil to med-high and you want it around 1 1/2-2 inches deep.
• Place a small bowl of water on your work surface and lay out 6 wrappers, and place around 1 1 1/2 t's in the center of each wrapper.
• Moisten edges, bring up corners and pinch together, along with sides-you dont want filling to float away.
• Place all 6 in the hot oil and repeat process.
• By the time you have the next set of 6 ready to crimp it should be time to turn the rangoon's.
• You want them a nice golden color.
• When done remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towells.
• Repeat until done.
• Try to share.

Steps:

• In bowl, mix together softened cream cheese, A.1.
• sauce, garlic powder and onions until well blended.
• Add crabmeat (thawed, drained and squeezed dry) and again mix well.
• Assem- ble each hors d'oeuvre as follows: Place won ton skin on working area with one corner pointed towards you.
• Spoon about 1/2 teasposon crab mixture on lower half of skin.
• Roll away from you so that filling is in cylindrical shape. Use small dab of water to seal point. Twist ends.
• Fry in hot 360 degrees oil until lightly browned and crispy.
