Description

Crab Rangoon Egg Rolls are the ultimate appetizer mashup—creamy crab filling meets crispy egg roll wrapper for a bite that’s crunchy, savory, and completely addictive. Whether fried or air-fried, these golden snacks pair perfectly with sweet chili sauce for dipping. Easy to prep, fun to serve, and guaranteed to impress!


Ingredients

  • Cream cheese (softened)
  • Imitation crab meat or real crab (chopped)
  • Green onions (finely sliced)
  • Garlic powder
  • Worcestershire sauce
  • Soy sauce
  • Egg roll wrappers
  • Egg (beaten, for sealing)
  • Oil for frying
  • Sweet chili sauce (for serving)

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, mix cream cheese, crab meat, green onions, garlic powder, Worcestershire sauce, and soy sauce until smooth and creamy.
  2. Place 1 egg roll wrapper on a clean surface with a corner pointing toward you. Add ~2 tbsp filling to the center.
  3. Fold the bottom corner over the filling, fold in the sides, and roll tightly. Seal the edge with beaten egg.
  4. Heat oil in a deep skillet to 350°F (175°C). Fry rolls in batches for 3–4 minutes, turning until golden brown.
  5. Drain on paper towels and serve warm with sweet chili dipping sauce.

Notes

  • Use real lump crab meat for an upscale twist.
  • Add jalapeño or sriracha for heat.
  • Air-fry at 375°F for 8–10 minutes, flipping halfway through.
  • Try dipping sauces like spicy mayo, soy sauce, or teriyaki.
  • Assemble ahead and refrigerate or freeze before cooking.
