Simply Scrumptious Crab Wontons image

This is a recipe my friend Kym showed me - and I have been making it ever since!! It goes great with my Sweet and Sour Meatballs - I serve this as an appetizer when I have guests with a little sweet chili sauce - YUMMY!! Vary amounts depending on the number of wontons you want - the filling is great spread on French bread with cheddar cheese and baked open face too!!

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my crab wontons turned out really oily. I think I might have fried them for too long.

The crab wontons were good, but I think they could have been better if I had used fresh crab meat instead of canned.

These crab wontons were a bit bland for my taste. I think I would add more spices next time.
