Ingredients
-
2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
-
1 pound crabmeat, shredded
-
3 tablespoons dark soy sauce
-
1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger root
-
½ teaspoon chopped fresh cilantro
-
½ teaspoon dried parsley
-
½ teaspoon minced garlic
-
1 (14 ounce) package small won ton wrappers
-
1 quart oil for frying
Directions
-
Mix cream cheese, crabmeat, soy sauce, ginger, cilantro, parsley, and garlic together in a bowl.
-
Heat oil in a large heavy skillet or deep fryer to 360 degrees F (180 degrees C).
-
While the oil is heating, place 1/2 to 1 teaspoon cream cheese mixture into the center of a wonton wrapper. Moisten the wrapper edges and pull two corners together over filling to make a triangle. Pull two remaining corners up to join them, then press firmly to seal. Repeat to make remaining wontons. Place prepared wontons under a slightly moist paper towel until oil is hot.
-
Working in batches, fry 3 or 4 wontons at a time in hot oil until golden brown and crispy, 1 to 2 minutes, flipping halfway through. Transfer wontons to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Serve hot.
