  • 1 cup lump crab meat or cooked shrimp/lobster
  • 2 green onions finely sliced
  • 2 cloves of garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce or tamari for gluten-free
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

  • 2 cups cooking oil high smoke point like canola or vegetable
Optional Topping
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds for garnish
  • 2 tablespoons sliced chilis for spice

Equipment

  • deep pan
  • cooking thermometer
  • slotted spoon

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Combine 8 ounces of softened cream cheese with 1 cup of lump crab meat, 2 sliced green onions, 2 minced garlic cloves, 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, and 1 teaspoon of Worcestershire sauce in a mixing bowl until smooth.
  2. Place about 1 tablespoon of the creamy crab filling in the center of a wonton wrapper, moisten edges with water, fold over and pinch to seal tightly.
  3. Heat cooking oil in a deep pan to 350°F (175°C). Check temperature by dropping a small piece of wonton wrapper; it should sizzle.
  4. Carefully fry the assembled bombs in batches for 2–3 minutes until golden brown.
  5. Use a slotted spoon to lift out bombs and transfer to a plate lined with paper towels.
