Ingredients

Scale

For the Wontons:

  • 8 oz (225g) cream cheese, softened
  • 2 green onions, finely chopped
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • ½ tsp soy sauce
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp black pepper
  • 24 wonton wrappers
  • 1 egg (beaten, for sealing)
  • Vegetable oil (for frying)

For Serving (Optional):

  • Sweet and sour sauce
  • Soy sauce
  • Sweet chili sauce

Instructions

  • Prepare the filling: In a medium bowl, mix the cream cheese, green onions, garlic powder, onion powder, soy sauce, salt, and black pepper until smooth.

  • Fill the wontons: Lay out the wonton wrappers on a clean surface. Place about 1 teaspoon of the cream cheese mixture in the center of each wrapper.

  • Seal the wontons: Brush the edges of each wonton wrapper with the beaten egg. Fold the wrapper diagonally to form a triangle or bring all four corners together for a classic wonton shape. Press the edges firmly to seal.

  • Heat the oil: In a deep skillet or pot, heat about 2 inches of vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C).

  • Fry the wontons: Carefully add a few wontons at a time and fry for 2-3 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

  • Serve: Let the wontons cool slightly, then serve with your favorite dipping sauces. Enjoy!

Notes

  • If you prefer baking, brush the wontons with oil and bake at 375°F (190°C) for 10-12 minutes until golden brown.
  • Air-frying option: Cook at 375°F (190°C) for 6-8 minutes, flipping halfway through.
  • You can add crab meat or minced shrimp to make crab rangoon.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or air fryer for crispiness.
