CHEF JOHN'S CRAB RANGOON



Chef John's Crab Rangoon image

While not 'authentic,' these crispy crab and cream cheese wontons are one of the most addictive, delicious, and crowd-pleasing appetizers ever created. That is, if the filling has enough crab in it. I'm using a 1 to 1 ratio of crab to cream cheese.

Time 1h50m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 17

8 ounces cream cheese
8 ounces crab meat, drained well
⅓ cup chopped green onions
1 clove crushed garlic
1 teaspoon soy sauce
½ teaspoon fish sauce
½ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
½ teaspoon salt, or to taste
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
¼ teaspoon sesame oil
1 pinch cayenne pepper
60 (3.5 inch square) wonton wrappers
Canola oil for frying
1 cup ketchup
¼ cup rice vinegar
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon sriracha hot sauce, or to taste

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.

Tips:

  • For the tastiest crab filling, use fresh crab meat whenever possible. If using frozen crab meat, thaw it completely before using.
  • For a crispy wonton wrapper, use wonton wrappers that are fresh and not too dry. If the wonton wrappers are too dry, they will crack when you try to fold them.
  • To prevent the wontons from sticking together, make sure to coat them lightly with oil before cooking.
  • Fry the wontons in hot oil until they are golden brown and crispy. Do not overcrowd the pan, or the wontons will not cook evenly.
  • Serve the crab wontons with your favorite dipping sauce. Some popular choices include sweet and sour sauce, chili sauce, and soy sauce.
