Cooking InstructionsHide images
step 1
Add the Philadelphia Original Soft Cheese (2/3 cup), Imitation Crab (4 oz), Scallion (1/4 cup), Soy Sauce (1 tsp), Worcestershire Sauce (1 tsp), Granulated Sugar (1/2 tsp), Ground Ginger (1/2 tsp), and Ground Black Pepper (1/2 tsp) to a mixing bowl, and mix until well combined.
step 2
Layout the Wonton Wrappers (20), and place about 2-3 tsp filling into the center of each wrapper. Dab the edges with a bit of water, fold two opposing ends of the wrappers together, and pinch only the tip. Then lift the other two edges and pinch to seal tight. Make sure there’s no leakage.
step 3
Add Cooking Oil (4 cups) to the pan, and heat up over medium heat until reaches 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Add a few pieces of Rangoon at a time (do not overcrowd) and fry for 2 minutes on both sides or until golden brown.
step 4
Remove from the pan and transfer to a cooling rack or paper towel-lined tray. Repeat frying with other batches.
step 5
Serve hot with Sweet Chili Sauce (1/4 cup).
