Strawberry Rangoon
Ingredients
- 6–8 small, fresh strawberries
- ¼ cup strawberry cream cheese spread
- 12 wonton skins
- Plastic wrap
- 3 tablespoons canola oil
- Cinnamon sugar (optional, for serving)
Steps
- Cut strawberries into ¼-inch pieces (about ¼ cup). Combine strawberries and cream cheese until blended.
- Lay wonton skins flat on work surface. Place 1 teaspoon strawberry mixture in center or each (do not overfill). Moisten a ¼-inch strip along edges with water; fold 1 corner over filling to opposite corner to form a triangle. Press edges together tightly to seal; repeat with remaining skins. Cover with plastic wrap and set aside until ready to cook.
- Preheat oil in large sauté pan on medium-high 3–4 minutes; add 3–4 wontons (do not crowd pan). Fry 1–2 minutes on each side or until crisp and golden. Transfer to paper towel-lined baking sheet; repeat with remaining wontons. Sprinkle with cinnamon sugar (if using); serve warm.
Serving Suggestions
- Complete your meal with rice, chow mein noodles (to top salad), and egg rolls.
- Cooking the rangoons in small batches is important; crowding the pan will lower the oil temperature and result in soggy rangoons.
