Let’s get started with Grandma’s special recipe!
Ingredients
- 1 package (16 oz) egg roll wrappers
- 1 package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
- 1 can (6 oz) crabmeat, drained and flaked
- 1/4 cup green onions, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 egg, beaten
- Oil for frying
Instructions
- To start, let’s prepare the flavorful filling. In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, crabmeat, green onions, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Give it a good mix until all the ingredients are well combined.
- Now for the fun part! Lay an egg roll wrapper on a flat surface with one corner pointing towards you. Take 1-2 tablespoons of the crab rangoon filling and place it in the center of the wrapper.
- It’s time to wrap them up! Fold the corner closest to you over the filling, then fold in the sides. Roll the wrapper away from you, tucking in the filling as you go, until you reach the opposite corner. To seal the roll, brush the edges with the beaten egg.
- Repeat this process with the remaining wrappers and filling, until you’ve used up everything. Trust us, the more, the merrier!
- Now let’s heat up some oil. In a deep frying pan or a deep fryer, heat the oil to 375°F (190°C). This will ensure a crispy and golden brown exterior.
- Carefully place a few egg rolls into the hot oil, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry them for 2-3 minutes, or until they turn a beautiful golden brown color. Don’t forget to turn them occasionally for even frying.
- Once they’re perfectly cooked, remove the egg rolls from the oil using a slotted spoon. Place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
- Now comes the best part – serving and enjoying these delicious creations! Serve the Crab Rangoon Egg Rolls hot with a side of sweet chili sauce or your favorite dipping sauce. Your taste buds will thank you!
