Ingredients
- 4 ounces, softened cream cheese
- 4 ounces, drained lump crab meat
- 2 tablespoons, finely chopped green onions
- 1 teaspoon soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1.5 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1 large egg
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 cup, for frying vegetable oil
Directions
Step 1
In a mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese, lump crab meat, green onions, soy sauce, and garlic powder. Mix well until smooth and fully incorporated.
Step 2
To prepare the dough, melt the shredded mozzarella cheese in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until fully melted and easy to combine.
Step 3
In another bowl, combine the melted mozzarella cheese with almond flour, egg, and salt. Mix by hand or using a spatula until a smooth dough forms.
Step 4
Place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper and roll it out to about 1/8-inch thick.
Step 5
Cut the dough into small squares, approximately 3x3 inches each.
Step 6
Place about 1 teaspoon of the crab filling in the center of each dough square.
Step 7
Fold the square into a triangle and press the edges to seal completely. If necessary, use a little water to help the edges stick together.
Step 8
In a skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium heat.
Step 9
Fry the rangoons in batches for about 1-2 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
Step 10
Place the cooked rangoons on a plate lined with paper towels to soak up excess oil.
Step 11
Serve warm with soy sauce or your favorite low-carb dipping sauce.
