Ingredients

Ingredients:

8 ounces cream cheese softened
5 ounces canned crab drained (can substitute fresh crab)
1/4 cup green onions minced
2 teaspoons Worcestershire
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
about 30 wonton wrappers
1 - 2 cups canola oil for frying

Instructions

In a bowl mix together cream cheese, crab, green onions, granulated garlic, Worcestershire, salt and pepper together in a bowl. Mix well.
To make the wontons, place a teaspoonful of the crab mixture in the center of the wonton wrapper, dip your finger into the bowl of water and run your finger along the edges of the wrapper. Pinch the corners together and make sure there is no trapped air and edges are sealed.
Heat 2 inches of oil in a saucepan over medium high heat. Once oil is hot, fry wontons (in batches if necessary) until golden brown and crispy, about 3 minutes . Transfer a cooling rack on top of a baking sheet to drain excess oil and sprinkle with salt. Serve hot.
