Crawfish Rangoon
Prep Time15 Minutes
Servings36
Cook Time30 Minutes
Ingredients
8 oz cream cheese, softened
4 oz cooked crawfish tail meat, finely chopped
2 Tbs fresh chives, finely chopped
1 large egg
1 Tbs water
36 wonton wrappers
vegetable oil, for frying
sweet Thai chile sauce, for serving
Directions
  1. In a bowl, combine the cream cheese, crawfish and chives. In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water. Working in small batches, place wonton wrappers on a work surface. Brush the egg mixture on all four edges of wrappers. Spoon a rounded teaspoon of crawfish mixture into the center of each wonton. Lift and press two opposing corners together over the filling.
  2. Lift and press the remaining two corners. Bring them to the middle to form a pouch. Press the seams together. Fold over the top where all four corners meet. Place on a baking sheet lined with damp paper towels, and cover with damp paper towels.
  3. Heat oil to 375° F in a Dutch oven. Carefully add several filled wontons to the oil, but do not crowd them. Fry until crisp and golden-brown, about 3 minutes. Continue with the remaining wontons. Transfer to a baking sheet. Place in a warm oven (200° F) until ready serve. Serve with sweet Thai chile sauce.
