    mix cream cheese, crab and onion(easier to use your hand to mix with glove on)

    spoonful in wonton wrap, eggwash to seal ends, drop in deep fryer til wrap is golden brown or darker.

    Looks pretty good, not a huge fan of pollock though (the fish).

    Just out of curiousity, why dont you like pollock? The imitation crab/lobster stuff or pollock in general?

    I will get a few pounds of shrimp, a few pounds of pollock and have a delicious fish fry. I havent had people complain about the taste of it.

    The Krab. I don’t mind a fillet portion properly cooked. I just don’t care for the scraps that are shredded and then pressed into a log shaped mold and dyed red. Seems to have a different taste than a true fresh piece of pollock.

    Sort of like tuna. Tuna in a can tastes nothing like a tuna steaks grilled outside on a spring evening.

    I can’t handle the fake crab either. Some real lump crab meat in those, though, would be DY-NO-MITE!

    I wonder how that would taste with some quickly poached walleye or pike instead of the Krab? Probably need to add some salt/pepper but I bet it would taste pretty good.

    We do them with just cream cheese, and they’re awesome. Some crab added would be icing on the cake! I fry them in a wok at about 350 till they brown up nicely.

    Another tip, if you can’t find won ton wraps you can use egg roll wraps just cut one wrap into 2 triangle..voila!

    They were pretty good! Worth a try guys. Go heavy on the fish and easy on the cream cheese. I did 6 big bluegills (12 fillets) and poached them for a couple minutes in salt water until they were done and used that instead of crab.

    6 big gills poached in salt water.
    1 pack of cream cheese brought to room temp and then beat with a mixer.
    a handful of diced green onion tops.
    salt & pepper

    Why would one need to pre cook gills, crappie or any orher fish for that mater?

    Deep frying for a few minutes, wouldn’t that do them?

    You are only cooking the shell when frying, at most you are heating up the cream cheese. The fish would not cook fully, not by a long shot. You would either have raw fish or a burnt wrap.

    I deep fried them and it took about 45 seconds at 375 to brown it, but I like them crispy so I went about a minute and a half and they were dark brown.
