Ingredients

  • Filling:
    • 16 oz (2 packages) cream cheese, softened
    • 1 to 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce (to taste)
    • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
    • ½ teaspoon onion powder
    • 3 green onions, chopped
    • ½ pound fresh flaked crabmeat (or imitation crab)
  • Wrapping:
    • 8 to 10 egg roll wrappers
  • For Frying:
    • Vegetable oil (for frying)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Filling:
    • In a food processor, blend the cream cheese, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, and chopped green onions until well combined. Stir in the crabmeat gently.
  2. Wrap the Egg Rolls:
    • Place an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface with one corner pointing toward you.
    • Scoop about three rounded tablespoons of filling onto the center of the wrapper.
    • Fold the corner nearest to you over the filling and tuck it in tightly. Fold in the sides and roll the wrapper tightly. Seal the final corner with a dab of water.
  3. Fry the Egg Rolls:
    • Heat vegetable oil in a heavy pot to 375°F (190°C).
    • Fry the egg rolls in small batches (2-3 at a time) for 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown. Make sure to let the oil return to temperature between batches.
    • Drain on paper towels.
  4. Serve:
    • Enjoy the egg rolls warm with your choice of dipping sauces, such as duck sauce, sweet and sour sauce, or soy sauce.

Tips & Variations

  • Crab Options: Fresh crab is ideal, but imitation crab or canned crab can work in a pinch. If using imitation crab, chop it finely.
  • Dipping Sauces: Pair with duck sauce, sweet and sour sauce, or hot mustard for added flavor.
  • Storage: Store leftover egg rolls in a zip-top bag in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat by frying or baking at 400°F until warm.
