Ingredients
Scale
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp onion powder
- 2 green onions, finely chopped
- 1 cup fresh crab meat (or imitation crab, finely chopped)
- 10 egg roll wrappers
- Vegetable oil for frying
Instructions
- In a bowl, mix cream cheese, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, green onions, and crab meat until combined.
- Lay an egg roll wrapper on a flat surface in a diamond shape. Place 2-3 tablespoons of filling in the center.
- Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold in the sides and roll tightly. Seal the top corner with a dab of water.
- Heat vegetable oil to 375°F in a deep fryer or Dutch oven. Fry 2-3 egg rolls at a time for 1-2 minutes until golden brown. Drain on paper towels.
- Serve warm with dipping sauces like sweet chili sauce or soy-based dips.
Notes
- Use fresh crab meat for the best flavor, but canned or imitation crab works in a pinch.
- Adjust the filling’s sweetness by adding sugar or mirin, if desired.
- You can bake the egg rolls at 400°F for a lighter option, brushing them with oil first.
