Ingredients

Scale

Filling Ingredients

  • ¾ cup crab meat (fresh or canned)
  • 4 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 2 green onions, chopped
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce

Assembly and Cooking

  • 810 egg roll wrappers
  • Vegetable oil, for frying (about 2 cups)

Optional

  • Sweet chili sauce, for serving

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Filling: In a medium bowl, combine crab meat, softened cream cheese, chopped green onions, garlic powder, and soy sauce. Mix thoroughly until smooth and creamy.
  2. Assemble the Egg Rolls: Lay an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface. Place about 2 tablespoons of filling near one corner. Roll tightly, folding in the sides to prevent leaking, and seal the edge with a little water.
  3. Heat the Oil: Pour vegetable oil into a deep skillet or pot and heat over medium-high until it reaches 350°F (175°C), hot enough to sizzle on contact.
  4. Fry the Egg Rolls: Carefully add a few egg rolls, cooking 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy. Avoid overcrowding to maintain oil temperature.
  5. Drain and Serve: Remove with slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Serve warm with sweet chili sauce or your preferred dip.

Notes

  • Use fresh crab meat when possible for optimal flavor and texture.
  • Seal egg roll wrappers tightly with water or egg wash to prevent filling leaks.
  • Maintain oil temperature around 350°F for quick, even frying without burning.
  • Fry in small batches to keep oil temperature steady.
  • Chill assembled rolls for 10 minutes before frying to help them hold their shape.
