Crab Rangoon

(8 ounce) boxes cream cheese

Worcestershire sauce

onions

lb fresh white cooked crab meat flaked

(12 ounces) wonton wraps

Vegetable oil

In food processor pulse cream cheese Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder and green onions several times until mixed. Stir in crab meat.

Holding the wonton wrapper in one hand with a point towards you, dip your index finger on your free hand in cold water. Moisten the edge of 1/2 of the wrap that is furthest from you. Now place a rounded teaspoonful of the cream cheese mixture in the middle. Fold over and gently seal one end to the other.  Press the wrap together to close tightly shaping it into a triangle; working the air bubbles out.  Repeat until the cream cheese mixture is gone; placing them on a cutting board covered with parchment paper and covering with moistened paper towels.

Heat about 1 1/2  inch oil in heavy stock pot (dutch oven) to 375 degrees. Working in small batches cook stuffed wontons for about 1 minute or until golden brown: turning halfway through. Drain on paper towels.

This is an old fav, looking forward to trying this recipe.
