I decided to try making them at home, because I haven't done anything new in a while. It seemed like an easy way to get back into cooking and learning to cook, it is also one of my favourite appetizers.
Ingredient should be to taste, you can change the portions according to desire:
3 Tablespoons of Cream Cheese
1 1/2 Tablespoon of Krab (Any kind of imitation crab.)
1 teaspoon Green Onion
1 clove Garlic
A dash of Salt.
A dash of Pepper.
~10 Wonton Wrappers.
Finely dice the Krab.
It's very important to make sure all our ingredients are finely shredded.
Put the Krab in the bowl with the cream cheese.
Dice the Green onions finely.
Finely dice the Garlic.
Add the vegetables to the bowl.
If you used fresh ingredients, now is a time you can see and appreciate that fact. It's a good time to gauge what you're putting into your body, add the salt and pepper now.
Mix very well, I used a fork, this helped break apart the cream cheese, though some recipes say letting the cream cheese sit a while makes this much easier.
Once you've thoroughly mixed the ingredients, you can start folding the wontons, there are many ways to fold the wrapper. Take a small spoonful and place it in the middle of your wrapper, I wet my fingers and ran them over the edges to help them stick, it didn't need a slurry.
In the method I used, I fold the corners together in 2 stages.
Starting to look nice at this point; once they are assembled, heat a pan to medium with a layer vegetable oil.
Let them cook for about 5 minutes on one side. The goal is to turn the wrapper slightly gold, and heat and slightly melt the cream cheese.
Flip them and cook the other side for another 5 minutes, after that they should be finished.
Beautiful.
