Ingredients

Scale

Filling Ingredients

  • 4 ounces imitation or real crab meat, finely chopped
  • 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 2 green onions, finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Assembly

  • 20–25 wonton wrappers

For Frying

  • Vegetable or canola oil (enough for deep frying, about 2-3 cups)

Optional Variations & Add-ins

  • Dash of sriracha or chopped jalapeños (for a spicy kick)
  • Substitute crab with finely chopped mushrooms, tofu, or artichoke hearts (vegetarian option)
  • Mix cream cheese with shredded mozzarella or cheddar (cheese blend)
  • Fresh dill or parsley (for herb-infused filling)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Crab Filling: In a bowl, combine softened cream cheese, finely chopped crab meat, green onions, soy sauce, and garlic powder. Mix until smooth and evenly blended, ensuring the flavors meld together.
  2. Assemble the Crab Rangoon Bombs: Lay a wonton wrapper flat. Place about one teaspoon of the crab filling in the center. Bring the edges together and pinch them tightly to form a round “bomb” shape. Seal the edges well using a little water to prevent leaks during cooking.
  3. Heat the Oil: Pour vegetable or canola oil into a deep pan or fryer and heat it to 350°F (175°C). Make sure there’s enough oil for the bombs to float freely and crisp evenly.
  4. Fry to Golden Perfection: Carefully lower a few Crab Rangoon Bombs into the hot oil. Fry for 2-3 minutes, turning occasionally, until all sides turn golden brown and crispy. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.
  5. Serve Warm: Serve the bombs hot, paired with your favorite dipping sauces such as sweet chili sauce, soy sauce, or tangy mustard dip for maximum flavor.

Notes

  • Keep filling chilled until assembly to prevent cream cheese from becoming too soft.
  • Don’t overfill to avoid difficulty sealing and bombs bursting during frying.
  • Seal wonton wrapper edges well with a bit of water for a secure closure.
  • Test and maintain oil temperature using a thermometer or a small piece of wrapper.
  • Drain bombs on paper towels immediately after frying to keep them crispy.
