Cream Cheese and Crab Wontons

A delicious appetizer with texture, colour, and a tremendous amount of flavor! The creaminess of the cream cheese blends well with the savory crab, and vegetables.

Ingredients
1 pkt medium square wonton wrappers
1 ½ pound king crab legs, cooked, de-shelled
1 red bell pepper, finely diced
1 jalapeno, de-seeded, finely diced
3 spring onion stems (green) finely chopped
10 oz cream cheese
Salt, to taste
Pepper, to taste
Vegetable oil, enough to deep fry

Method
1.Heat enough oil in a wok or a skillet to 350 degrees F.

2. Combine crab meat, bell pepper, jalapeno, green onion, and cream cheese and mix until well incorporated. Season with salt and pepper.

3. Separate wonton wrappers into individual wrappers and place about a tablespoon into the center of each. Wetting your finger with water, trace around the outer edges of the wrapper and fold bottom right corner of wrapper up to top left corner of wrapper. This should create a triangle shape. Pinch every edge to make sure the wonton is sealed. Fill all wontons until you've used up the filling.

4. In a wok or skillet, deep fry the crab wontons until golden brown. Drain on several layers of paper towels. Garnish with green onions cut on a bias or finely diced bell pepper, and serve with a spicy chili dipping sauce.
