Crispy Shrimp Rangoon

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Crispy Shrimp Rangoon.

1. Step 1

   Start by heating vegetable oil in a deep fryer or a large saucepan until it reaches a temperature of 350°F (175°C).

2. Step 2

   While the oil warms up, grab a mixing bowl and combine softened cream cheese, chopped shrimp, minced onion, garlic powder, and a sprinkle of black pepper.

3. Step 3

   Stir everything together until it’s well blended and creamy, creating a delicious filling that’s sure to impress.

4. Step 4

   Now, take a wonton wrapper and place a generous spoonful of your creamy shrimp mixture right in the center.

5. Step 5

   To help seal the wrapper, dampen the edges with a little water—this will ensure your tasty filling stays tucked inside.

6. Step 6

   Next, fold the wrapper over the filling to form either a triangle or an envelope shape, pressing the edges firmly together to create a tight seal.

7. Step 7

   Once your wontons are ready, carefully lower them into the hot oil, frying them until they turn a beautiful golden brown, which should take about three minutes.

8. Step 8

   When they’re perfectly crispy, remove the wontons and let them drain on paper towels to soak up any excess oil.

9. Step 9

   Serve them warm and watch as everyone enjoys these delightful bites!.
