Crab-Cheese Wantons

Happy Fall Everyone!

After much tweaking, this recipe is gold!  These are totally indulgent and packed with fresh flavor...

1 package cream cheese
1 package imitation or real crab meat
1/3 cup green onions, chopped
2 teaspoons fresh ginger, minced
1 large clove fresh garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon red pepper
about 4-5 tablespoons worcestershire sauce
about 3 tablespoons soy sauce


Mix well.

Place a teaspoon of crab mixture on each wanton wrapper, dab water on the edges and fold (the packages usually have folding directions on the back). Heat about an inch of oil in a small frying pan to medium-high heat. Fry wantons until golden and crispy.  Remove from oil and serve, preferably with Trader Joe's Sweet Chili Sauce.

Indulge.

Recommended: Make the filling ahead of time and then make the wantons with a friend.  Try folding them different ways!
