I'm thinking of attempting to make crab rangoon, it looks easy enough...has anyone ever done this?

Re: Crab Rangoon?
I've made the crab rangoons from the Kraft Food and Family website. They were quick and pretty tasty. However, they weren't deep fried like the ones you get at Chinese restaurants.

I made them a long time ago for a dinner party and they were really good. I couldn't make the fancy shapes that the Chinese restaurants make, so I just put the filling in the middle of the won ton wrapper and folded them into triangles and then fried them. I think I made the filling from crab (I used imitation, but real would have been better), cream cheese, with a little scallions and fresh ginger. I had that thai sweet chili sauce called Mae Ploy too, put a little of that in the mix, as well as on the side to dip.
I've made egg rolls more recently and used that yummy broccoli-slaw in the filling. So crispy and tasty.
Good luck!
I've made them - deep fried in my wok, and they were delicious!
I have 2 tips:
1. Use the storebought dough that already comes in squares (won-ton wrappers) and to get the usual shape, pinch the tops together with a little water and slide them into the side of the wok.
2. Watch your oil temperature. Once we got it waaay too hot and it filled our apartment with smoke. Oil goes from nothing to super hot really, really fast. Since then I've used a thermometer to make sure it isn't too hot.
Nope, but you could bake it as well-- I know there was one on a blog a while ago that I read... can't remember now but it might come up in google.
