Let’s dive into this simple, mouthwatering recipe that you’ll want to make again and again!


Ingredients:

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 2 green onions, finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce
  • 20-25 wonton wrappers
  • Vegetable oil for frying
  • Sweet chili sauce or soy sauce for dipping


Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Filling: In a medium bowl, mix the softened cream cheese, chopped green onions, garlic powder, and soy sauce until smooth and well combined.
  2. Assemble the Rangoons: Lay out a wonton wrapper on a flat surface. Place about 1 teaspoon of the cream cheese mixture in the center of the wrapper. Moisten the edges of the wrapper with water and fold the wonton into a triangle, pressing the edges tightly to seal. You can also pinch the edges together for a more decorative shape if desired. Repeat with the remaining wonton wrappers and filling.
  3. Heat the Oil: In a deep skillet or pot, heat about 2 inches of vegetable oil over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
  4. Fry the Rangoons: Carefully place a few rangoons in the hot oil, frying them in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry for 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy, flipping halfway through. Remove with a slotted spoon and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
  5. Serve: Serve the hot cheese rangoons with sweet chili sauce, soy sauce, or your favorite dipping sauce.


Notes:

  • This recipe makes about 20-25 rangoons, perfect for appetizers or snacks.
  • You can bake the rangoons for a lighter option by spraying them with oil and baking at 400°F (200°C) for about 10-12 minutes, or until golden and crispy.
  • For added flavor, you can mix in chopped crab meat or shrimp to make crab rangoons.
