Ingredients
- 1 cup Lobster meat (cooked and chopped)
- 8 ounces Cream cheese (softened)
- 2 tablespoons Green onions (thinly sliced)
- 0.5 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Soy sauce
- 20 pieces Wonton wrappers
- 1 piece Egg (beaten, for sealing)
- 2 cups Vegetable oil (for frying)
Directions
Step 1
In a medium-sized bowl, combine the chopped lobster meat, softened cream cheese, green onions, garlic powder, and soy sauce. Mix thoroughly until well combined.
Step 2
Lay a wonton wrapper on a clean surface. Place about 1 teaspoon of the lobster and cream cheese filling in the center of the wrapper.
Step 3
Brush the edges of the wonton wrapper lightly with the beaten egg to help seal.
Step 4
Fold the wonton wrapper diagonally to form a triangle, pressing the edges together to seal tightly. If preferred, bring the two opposite corners of the triangle together and pinch to create a 'flower' shape.
Step 5
Repeat until all the wrappers and filling are used.
Step 6
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep skillet or heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
Step 7
Carefully add 3-4 wontons at a time to the hot oil, frying them for 2-3 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
Step 8
Using a slotted spoon, transfer the fried wontons to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Step 9
Serve the wontons warm with your favorite dipping sauce, such as sweet chili sauce or soy sauce.
