  • 2 cloves Minced Garlic For convenience, you can use garlic powder (1/4 tsp).
  • 1 tblsp Soy Sauce Tamari is a great gluten-free substitute.
  • 1 tblsp Worcestershire Sauce This ingredient is optional.
For the Wrapping
  • 8 oz Wonton Wrappers Opt for gluten-free wrappers to fit dietary needs.

  • Paper Towels

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese, crab meat, finely chopped green onions, minced garlic, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Mix until smooth.
  2. Place about 1 tablespoon of filling in the center of a wonton wrapper. Moisten edges, fold over to create a triangle, and pinch edges tightly to seal.
  3. Heat about 2 inches of vegetable oil in a pan over medium-high heat to 350°F (175°C). Test with a small piece of wonton wrapper to see if it sizzles.
  4. Carefully drop bombs into hot oil and fry for about 2-3 minutes until golden-brown, turning occasionally.
  5. Let fried bombs cool slightly on a paper towel to absorb excess oil before serving warm with dipping sauces.
