Ingredients (11)

  • 5 oz peeled shrimp from 10 oz whole shrimp
  • 7 spring roll wrapper sheets cut into 4 smaller squares
  • 2 oz onion chopped
  • 1.5 oz cream cheese
  • 1 1/2 cup canola oil *
  • 2 tbsp parsley chopped
  • 2 tbsp scallion chopped
  • 1 fl oz water
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp ground black pepper
  • 1 1/2 tsp Worcestershire sauce

INSTRUCTIONS

1

Mince 5 oz shrimp, like so, and put it in a bowl.

2

Combine the shrimp meat with 2 oz onion, 1.5 oz cream cheese, 2 tbsp parsley, 2 tbsp scallion, 1/2 tsp garlic powder, 1/2 tsp ground black pepper, and 1 1/2 tsp Worcestershire sauce.

3

Place a bit of the filling in the middle of a wrapper. Dampen two adjacent sides with water.

4

Fold the two non-wet sides over, like so. Gently press to seal the sides together.

5

Bring the two corners together, like so, and glue them with water, one on top of the other. Repeat steps 3 and 4 until you have 28 pouches.

6

Heat 1 1/2 cups canola oil over medium heat. Test the heat by dunking a pair of chopsticks in -- if it bubbles, the oil's ready. Fry the shrimp rangoons for 1 minute or until the outside turns golden.

7

Place the fried ones onto a paper towel to dab off excess oil. Serve while it's hot and crunchy.

(*) Only a part of the frying oil will end up in the final product, and we have calculated nutritional values based on that amount. The whole amount is needed for the cooking process, but what actually ends up being consumed is 1 1/2 tablespoon of oil.
