In a medium heavy bottom pan over medium heat add the sugar and water.

Stir occasionally or until the sugar is all dissolved.

Once dissolved, add in the peanut butter and stir well.

Crab Rangoonegg drop and ragoon

Ingredients

8oz cream cheese softened

4oz imitation crab meat

1 medium sized onion, chopped

50 wonton wrappers

oil for frying

 

Directions

Combine cream cheese, “crab” and onion in food processor and pulse until combined. You want a bit of texture but not big chunks. Place the wanton wrappers on a flat surface 10 at a time and put about 1 teaspoon of filling on each. Don’t overfill or they will ooze out during frying. Put some water in a cup and using your finger dip it in and then wet the edges of the wanton wrapper. Fold into a triangle and press the edges closed, try not to leave large air bubbles or they will expand and rupture during frying. Fry in about 2 inches of hot oil about 1 minute per side or until golden brown. Drain on paper towels and try to wait at least a few seconds before eating or you will burn your mouth.

Enjoy!!
