Crab Filled Egg Rolls With Ginger Lime Dipping Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Place an egg-roll wrapper on a work surface. Center 3 Tbs. crabmeat on the wrapper, forming it into a log. Fold the corner closest to you tightly over the filling, then overlap right and left corners. Then, as if forming a cigarette, roll wrapper tightly, moistening the end with wet fingertips. Press to seal. Repeat with remaining wrappers and crab.
• Heat oil in a Dutch oven to 300 degrees. Cook rolls, 5 at a time, turning once, until blond, about 2 minutes. Drain, cool and refrigerate in a zipper-lock bag. (Can be prepared to this point up to 3 days ahead.) Reserve oil.
• Several hours before serving, mix dipping sauce ingredients together. Heat oven to 200 degrees. Reheat oil to 375 degrees in Dutch oven. Cook rolls again, 5 at a time, turning once, until crisp and golden brown, about 2 minutes. Drain on a rack set over a lipped cookie sheet and place in warm oven; can be held up to 20 minutes.
• Cut each roll into thirds, sprinkle with cilantro and serve with dipping sauce.

Steps:

• For the crab cakes: Combine the eggs, mayonnaise, dry mustard, mustard, seafood seasoning and Worcestershire in a large bowl and whisk together. Add the breadcrumbs and mix to make a creamy consistency. Place the crabmeat in a separate large bowl. Very gently fold the wet mixture into the crabmeat, being careful not to break up any of the big lumps, until the mixture just holds together.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Form the crab mixture into 8-ounce cakes. Lay on the prepared baking sheets, then sprinkle with a little melted butter and cook until golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes.
• For the cream cheese filling: Combine the cream cheese, Cheddar-jack, mustard, parsley, soy sauce, red wine vinegar, seafood seasoning, cayenne, red pepper and onion in a bowl.
• For the slaw: Combine the cabbages, peppers, carrots, mayonnaise, rice wine vinegar, mirin and salt in a bowl.
• For the mango ponzu: Whisk together the mango puree, mirin, oyster sauce, soy sauce, ginger puree, rice wine vinegar and garlic powder in a bowl.
• For the spicy mayo: Whisk together the mayonnaise, sriracha and seafood seasoning in a bowl.
• To finish: Preheat oil in a deep-fryer to 325 degrees F. Preheat the oven or broiler to 450 degrees F.
• Place 1 tablespoon cream cheese mixture and half of a crab cake in an egg roll wrapper. Roll it and cover the edges with the egg yolk. Repeat with remaining filling and wrappers.
• Fry in batches until golden brown. Cut on a bias and place in the oven/broiler for 3 to 4 minutes.
• Place some slaw in the middle of a plate, then place 4 pieces of egg roll on the plate and drizzle with both sauces. Garnish with green onion. Repeat to make 3 to 4 more plates.

Steps:

• Prehat the oven to 350°. Lightly spray the bottom of the cups of a muffin tin with a non-stick cooking spray.
• FILLING - Add the crab meat, cream cheese, chopped green onion, minced onion, teriyaki sauce and white pepper to a small mixing bowl and mix until well blended.
• Place the wonton wrappers on a flat surface. Add spoonfuls of the crab filling to the center of each wonton wrapper. Take two opposite tips of a wonton wrapper, and bring the tips to meet over the center of the filling. Take the other two opposite tips of the wonton wrapper and bring them to the center. Gently pinch the four tips together. Repeat with remaining wonton wrappers.
• Lift each Crab Rangoon appetizer gently and place one into each of the cups of the coated muffin tin. Bake in a 350° oven for 16-18 minutes or until the tips of the wonton wrappers are lightly browned.
• DIPPING SAUCE - In the meantime, add all the dipping sauce ingredients to a small bowl and mix until well blended. If you want a thinner sauce, you can place all the dipping sauce ingredients in a food processor and puree or blend for 10 to 20 seconds.
• When the appetizers are done, remove the pan from the oven and let them cool in the pan for about 1 minute. Then carefully lift each baked rangoon and place on a platter.
