Description
A crunchy, golden-brown appetizer filled with a savory and creamy crab and cream cheese mixture.
Ingredients
12 oz cream cheese, softened
8 oz crab meat (real or high-quality imitation), finely chopped
2 green onions, thinly sliced
1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
1 tsp soy sauce
1 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp ground ginger
1 package square wonton wrappers
1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
Neutral oil for frying
Instructions
Step 1: In a large bowl, mix together softened cream cheese, crab meat, green onions, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, garlic powder, and ginger until smooth.
Step 2: Place a wonton wrapper on a flat surface and put 1 teaspoon of filling in the center.
Step 3: Brush the edges with egg wash, then gather the corners and pinch tightly at the top to seal the bomb.
Step 4: Heat oil in a deep pot to 350°F (175°C).
Step 5: Fry the bombs in batches for 2-3 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
Step 6: Drain on a wire rack and serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce.
Notes
Ensure the oil stays at a consistent 350°F to prevent sogginess. Do not overfill the wrappers.
