Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 8 oz 225 g cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup imitation crab meat or real crab, finely chopped
  • 2 green onions finely sliced
  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt optional
  • 8 –10 egg roll wrappers
  • Water for sealing edges
  • Oil for frying vegetable or canola

Equipment

  • Mixing bowl
  • Spoon or spatula
  • Small brush (for sealing egg rolls)
  • Frying pan or deep fryer
  • Tongs or slotted spoon
  • Paper towels
  • Cooling rack (optional)

Method
 

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine cream cheese, chopped crab, green onions, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, and salt. Mix until smooth and creamy.
  2. Place one egg roll wrapper on a clean surface, with a corner facing you (like a diamond shape).
  3. Spoon about 2 tablespoons of the crab mixture onto the center of the wrapper.
  4. Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold in the sides and roll tightly toward the top corner.
  5. Brush the edge with water to seal. Repeat with remaining wrappers.
  6. Heat oil in a large skillet or deep fryer to 350°F (175°C).
  7. Fry the egg rolls 2–3 at a time for about 3–4 minutes, turning occasionally until golden brown.
  8. Remove and drain on paper towels or a cooling rack.
  9. Serve warm with sweet chili sauce or soy dipping sauce.

Notes

Air fryer method: Brush egg rolls lightly with oil and air fry at 375°F (190°C) for 8–10 minutes, flipping halfway.
Add a pinch of sugar to the filling for a slightly sweeter flavor.
You can prepare and freeze the uncooked egg rolls; fry directly from frozen for a few extra minutes.
Pairs perfectly with sweet and sour sauce or sriracha mayo.
