Ingredients
- 2 (8 ounces each) blocks cream cheese, regular or light
- 1 pound imitation crabmeat, minced
- 2 teaspoons sugar
- 1 teaspoon garlic
- 1 package wonton wrappers
- 1 egg, beaten
- Oil for frying
Directions
-
Set the cream cheese out at room temperature to soften up a little.
-
Put in a mixing bowl and beat with an electric mixer on low speed
-
until creamy and easy to stir. Add the minced crabmeat, sugar and
-
garlic; stir until well blended.
-
Set out four or five wrappers at a time and place a dollop of cream
-
cheese mixture in the middle. Wrap into an egg roll shape, as per
-
package instructions. Brush beaten egg onto wrapper end before
-
rolling up completely to ensure a good seal. Continue this process
-
until the cream cheese mixture is all gone.
-
Deep fry until golden brown; this only takes a couple of minutes.
-
Drain on paper towels and serve. Makes 40 to 50 wontons.
